Progroup<\/a> is investing more than 90 million euros in a new corrugated board plant in Rhineland-Palatinate that will be part of a sustainable packaging park. Production of corrugated board is set to begin in 2023. To mark the start of the construction work with a party, the company invited guests to attend the ground-breaking ceremony.<\/p>\n

\"\"Progroup is building a new corrugated boardplant in south-west Germany, between the Palatinate villages of Petersberg and H\u00f6heischweiler. The company is investing more than 90 million euros in the new building, continuing so to pursue its growth strategy. Production is set to begin in the second half of 2023. The manufacturer of containerboard and corrugated board will be creating 60 new working places. Representatives of the packaging manufacturer G&G Prei\u00dfer joined local politicians and the companies involved in the construction project to celebrate the start of the construction work. This is because the 28,000 sm new building is being constructed right next door to Progroup\u2019s long-standing customer and partner. In future, Progroup will be able to supply it with corrugated board just-in-time via a direct link, creating in this way a sustainable packaging park.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday is special for me for two reasons\u201d, said Maximilian Heindl, Chief Development Officer and deputy CEO of Progroup, on the occasion of the start of the works. \u201cFirst, Progroup\u2019s roots are situated barely 55 kilometres away. It was some 30 years ago that my father symbolically broke new ground with our first \u00a0plant in Offenbach an der Queich and we are now able to continue our story in our home region. Second, I am delighted that with the new plant we are taking another vital step in embracing sustainability\u201d. The cooperation with the packaging manufacturer next door will establish close links between logistics and production processes. There will be far fewer truck journeys, allowing Progroup to operate even more sustainably and efficiently.<\/p>\n

Resource-saving production methods, innovative products
\n<\/strong>The planned production speed is 400 m\/min with a working width of 3.35 m. The production line is designed to produce single-wall and double-wall Next Board\u00ae corrugated board sheets with B, C, E and F flutes and smaller grammages in all combinations. Next Board\u00ae corrugated boards are renowned for much lower use of energy and raw materials and in production and transport they reduce CO2 emissions per ton of corrugated board by 26% on average and do this with enhanced strength figures.<\/p>\n

In the long term, Progroup is striving to achieve carbon-neutral recycling. To do this, the company is investing around two million euros in state-of-the-art, resource-saving production methods at its new site. One of Progroup\u2019s plans is to commission an efficient combined cooling, heat and power plant. This will save the use of fossil fuels and at the same time reduce CO2 emissions by utilizing energy efficiently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
