Two global leaders, chemicals company Kemira and process technology, automation
and services company Valmet, have signed a partnership agreement for the
development of digitalized data-based applications and services for their
customers in the pulp and paper industry.
"Kemira and Valmet are leading suppliers to the industry globally and both
companies are also actively developing digital solutions. Ultimately, the goal
is to improve the speed, quality, reliability, predictability and performance of
our customers' business. With these synergies, it makes great sense to join
forces to create value and reshape business collaboration models," says Antti
Matula, Vice President of Product Lines and Business Development at Kemira.
"Through this cooperation and the companies' complementary know-how, customers'
production process data can be integrated and optimized for the customers'
benefit. This provides superior performance for the customers instead of each
actor operating independently," says Jari Almi, Director of Industrial Internet
at Valmet.
