Kastamonu Entegre produced its first board on the new Siempelkamp particleboard line at its Samsun location, Turkey. Following the start of assembly in July 2020 and the completion of the dry run at the end of January 2021, the punctual production of the first board represents a further milestone in the implementation of the project.
The new particleboard line including Generation 9 ContiRoll® in the 7' x 37.1m format is designed for a daily output of approx. 2,000 m3. The focus here is on the Turkish furniture industry as a sales market. The plant is the eighth Siempelkamp plant with continuous press technology which Kastamonu currently operates in Turkey, Russia, and Italy.
Siempelkamp is a system supplier of press lines and complete plants for the wood materials industry, metal forming, and the composites and rubber industries.
