US-based Green Bay Packaging has opted for ANDRITZ to deliver a recovery boiler, evaporation facility, and power boiler for its pulp mill located in Morrilton, Arkansas, US.

Founded in 1933, Green Bay Packaging runs more than 40 facilities across 16 US states with a portfolio of diverse packaging products.

Its operations encompass corrugated container and folding carton manufacturing, and both recycled and virgin containerboard mills.

Green Bay Packaging Morrilton mill and capital project management director Jonathon Gates said: “The ANDRITZ team has shown exceptional commitment to fostering collaboration and has actively engaged with us to develop futureproof solutions for this project.”

The scope of supply includes a recovery boiler equipped with automation and digital solutions such as Smart Smelt Spout Robots and advanced monitoring systems.

Moreover, the order comprises a lamella evaporation facility and a biomass-fired power boiler constructed using the EcoFluid bubbling fluidised bed design.

The commissioning of this new equipment is projected for the latter half of 2027.

The agreement further enhances ANDRITZ's foothold in the US pulp and paper industry.

ANDRITZ North America pulp and power senior vice-president Jarmo Kaila said: “We are honoured that Green Bay Packaging has selected us as a partner for this major modernisation project.

“Our solutions will help to increase the mill’s operational safety and availability while also providing flexibility for future capacity expansions.”

Last September, ANDRITZ partnered with PulPac to supply Dry Molded Fiber lines in order to serve the alternative packaging market.
