Toscotec to implement advanced drying section rebuild at Papeterie le Bourray in France

Toscotec will supply a complete rebuild of PM3's drying section to Papeterie le Bourray mill in Saint-Mars-la-Brière, France. This marks a repeat order for Toscotec, following the successful PM4 rebuild in 2020 where a new headbox helped the mill achieve its target.

Planned to start up by March 2026, this new pivotal project aims to support the area in achieving energy consumption reduction, marking a strong, tangible commitment to a greener future.

Toscotec will perform a tailor-made rebuild and an upgrade of the existing machine, which aims at significantly optimizing its efficiency and environmental performance. The scope includes upgrading the Yankee Dryer section, by featuring an innovative TT Steel Yankee Dryer 12FT with a new steam and condensate system, and a high efficiency TT Hood. Thanks to the higher drying capacity of the new Steel Yankee Dryer, it will be possible to enable the transition from the existing Mono System to a new Hybrid Gas Fired one, consisting of a wet-end hood fired by fuel and of a suction dry-end hood. The remarkable outcome of this transformation will result in a decrease in energy consumption, aligning perfectly with sustainability goals and continuing to support the consistent production capacity crucial for our customer's success.

Founded in 1844, the Papeterie Le Bourray paper mill is world-renowned for developing, manufacturing, and distributing white, colored and recycled cellulose wadding.

Founded in 1948, Toscotec specializes in the design and manufacture of turnkey projects, complete machines, rebuilds and stand-alone systems for the tissue and paper and board industries.
