In the implementation of the activities under project No. BG-RRP-3.008-0153-C01 “Support for the Transition to a Circular Economy”, the company has put into regular operation a MVN 1600 napkin production machine as of 20.06.2025 and an MVNL 1600 P4 automatic napkin production line as of 02.12.2025. With the implementation of the project activities and the commissioning of the new machines, technological waste is minimized (reduced amount of waste and raw material used per unit of product due to reduced setup requirements), with increased productivity (up to 4500 pcs napkins/min). Due to the high operating speed of the new machines, replacement of raw material (tissue) containing synthetic components with raw material of 100% plant origin is achieved, reduction of the amount of PP packaging used, with increased capacity for napkin production.
With the implementation of the new Automatic napkin production line – 1 unit and Napkin production machine – 1 unit, the company transitions to more efficient and higher-quality napkin production, with a reduction of the carbon footprint of the production process and improved energy efficiency.
