Quantem Appointed to delivery Metsä Tissue’s First UK Facility
We are delighted to announce that we have been appointed to the team that will deliver Metsä Tissue’s first UK state-of-the-art tissue mill in Goole, East Yorkshire.
This 200-acre project commencing from RIBA Stage 1 will create hundreds of local jobs and boost the UK’s self-sufficiency in essential tissue products through the provision of 240 thousand tonnes of tissue paper production per year using raw materials from the sustainably managed Nordic forests.
Esa Kaikkonen, CEO of Metsä Tissue, said:
“We are delighted to announce our plan to invest in a world-class production site in Goole. This exciting investment would bring the UK and Finland together through combining the sustainable raw material of fresh wood fibres grown in the Nordics with world-class local production of quality tissues in the UK. We are thrilled about how these plans can contribute to more sustainable local tissue production in the UK, offering alternatives to the currently imported tissue products. The project will significantly enhance Metsä Tissue’s presence in this country and underscores the importance of the UK market to our business in the years ahead.”
