Toscotec large experience and reliable approach with its proven TT DOES package, already applied in several mills working conditions worldwide, has matched our requirement in this direction. This rebuild completes the one already initiated in the phase of pulp treatment allowing us to use complex raw material with high quality fibers and increasing efficiency and reducing energy consumption”
