Fluor provided procurement and construction management services
for the innovative board machine and associated infrastructure,
including power, water and effluent treatment facilities. The
facility is integrated with a sustainable eucalyptus plantation.
Fluor managed more than 5,500 craft workers at peak on this
fast-paced project, which achieved production of the first consumer
board on reel just 18 months after the start of construction.
“Fluor leveraged our nearly 40 years of experience in China to
deliver this consumer board machine for Stora Enso and the Beihai
community safely and on an unprecedented timeline,” said Ken
Choudhary, president of Fluor’s Asia Pacific business.
At full production, the consumer board machine will produce
450,000 tons per year of liquid packaging board and other
high-grade paperboard products to meet the demand in China.
“We look forward to delivering the same results on the project’s
second phase, a mechanical pulp mill, as it completes in the fourth
quarter of 2016,” said Juan G. Hernández, president of Fluor’s Life
Sciences & Advanced Manufacturing business.
