Toscotec to replace yankee and steam plant at PAPECO in France

French tissue manufacturer Papeteries du Cotentin (PAPECO), purchased a TT SYD Steel Yankee Dryer and a complete high-performance steam and condensate plant from Toscotec to fully replace their existing cast iron dryer and steam system on PM3 at their Orval sur Sienne mill in Normandy. The project includes modifications to the machine for the new steam system and it is planned for start-up in the Q3 2024.

Compared with the existing cast iron Yankee, the new TT SYD will significantly increase PM3's production capacity, guarantee higher operational safety, and deliver energy savings.

Founded in 1990, PAPECO produces industrial wiping rolls, medical sheets, and toilet tissue.

Toscotec designs and manufactures machines, systems and components for the production of tissue and paper & board.
