Valmet will deliver a chipping line and defibrator system for MDF (medium-
density fiberboard) production to Greenply Industries Ltd's new fiberboard mill
in Routhu Suramala, Mandal in Andhra Pradesh state, India. The target is to

The order was included in Valmet's first quarter 2016 orders received. The value
of the order will not be disclosed. An order with this scope of supply is
usually valued in the range of EUR 5-10 million.
"We decided to place the order with Valmet because the solution they offered
will minimize our operational costs and secure a high quality end product.
Having Valmet equipment at our existing plant, and our positive experience with
them, has made us prefer to go with Valmet again for our new plant equipment
supply. Valmet's strong service support and domestic presence in India is truly
a beneficial factor for Greenply," says Shobhan Mittal, CEO at Greenply.
"We at Valmet offer local services and latest technology to our customers in
India. Greenply is an old customer to us, and we highly value the long-term
partnership with them. This will be the first time our new drum chipper is
installed and we are really excited about that," says Leif Sundberg, Sales
Manager at Valmet.
