Sappi Europe has made sustainability and security of supply for customers a top priority as the group embarks upon the third phase of a huge modernisation project at its flagship Gratkorn Mill in Austria
European sales director for commercial print John Clinton said that
despite the dramatic decline in demand at some of its graphic paper markets
Sappi was confident about the future for print and paper-based substrates
He cited a near-50% overall decline in demand for CWF paper from 2019-2023
the enormous contraction in the web offset market
and the fact that "very little" publication gravure printing now remained in Europe
“We recognise the market situation and the reason we’re investing in Gratkorn is to ensure we can be the winner in a difficult market situation,” he stated
“What’s really important to our customers is availability – that they can get the product when they need it.”
Gratkorn is the flagship site for production of the Magno range of predominantly coated woodfree papers
Sappi also has a “carousel” system for production whereby it can manufacture Magno to the same standards at other European mills if necessary
depending on product demand at any given time
“Magno is made in Europe and we spend a lot of money behind the curtain on quality and the environment,” Clinton added
Sappi Europe recently completed phase two of the modernisation project at Gratkorn
which involves an investment of around €25m (£21.17m)
The integrated mill produces 250,000tpa of pulp
and has the capacity to make 950,000tpa of paper at the giant site
PM11 at the mill produces Magno and has a capacity of 730,000tpa
As part of Sappi’s diversification into other types of paper the site has also been making label grades since 2021 on PM9
PM9 currently makes wet-glue and self-adhesive papers under Sappi’s Parade brand and following the completion of a validation project currently underway
will launch the wet-strength and alkali-resistant Parade Label WS label papers in the autumn
The new wet-strength range will be targeted at wet-glue label applications such as returnable bottles and containers
“Our label papers have really developed in the last couple of years,” Clinton said
“We are by far the largest in label papers and will be substantially more after the completion of the next investment.”
who oversees 1,061 employees at the site highlighted the safety and sustainability ethos at Gratkorn
which also provides heating to more than 20,000 households in the area via a district heating scheme
Boiler 11 has been upgraded from coal to biomass and renewable energy will be up to 70% "soon" he said
said the business was focusing its efforts on the seven areas where it could make the biggest impact
and was helping suppliers to bring them up to the same level
It uses the Ecovadis tools and scorecard extensively
"We want to be able to say to our customers they are buying a product with well-managed raw materials," she explained

wet-strength label papers with a linen embossed version of its Parade Label WS label paper
Produced at Sappi’s Gratkorn mill in Austria
the new Parade Label WS linen targets applications such as returnable beverage bottles.
The paper’s launch at the beginning of October coincides with the completion of Sappi’s investment project at its Gratkorn site
Sappi announced the investment of tens of millions of euros in a technical infrastructure at the site
The project was aimed at ensuring production capacities of wet-strength
alkali-resistant label papers in the future and at establishing its position as a full-range supplier of label papers over the long term.
Sappi’s Parade Label WS is a wet-strength and alkali-resistant label paper
Sappi continues with wet-glue label papers
wet-strength paper primarily targets wet-glue label applications.
Linen embossing not only enhances the visual appearance
but also labeling performance due to improved separability of the labels and reduced static adhesion
also ensures washability of the labels in the bottle preparation process for reuse
This works especially well with papers that have been metalized to create eye-catching labels

Liebherr is taking important steps towards a decarbonised construction site
In a project that recently started at the Kanzelstein quarry in Gratkorn
Strabag is testing Liebherr’s large hydrogen-powered wheel loader over a period of two years
Energie Steiermark will supply green hydrogen for its own hydrogen filling station at the quarry
The L 566 H wheel loader is the world’s first large wheel loader with a hydrogen engine
director of Energie Steiermark and Jan Liebherr
chairman of the board of directors of Liebherr-International AG attended a special event at the Gratkorn quarry to mark the start of the project for the first test use of the large hydrogen powered wheel loader
“I am pleased to see innovative companies pushing ahead with pilot projects
especially in forms of mobility that are difficult to electrify
such as those in the construction sector,” said Gewessler
one of the foremost construction companies in Europe
shows what an important and positive development the Liebherr drive technology is
Liebherr is delighted to hear this appreciation and acknowledgement of the path that it has chosen.”
The only way to achieve this is by consistently and comprehensively saving CO2
in the operation of construction machinery,” explained Haselsteiner
In addition to technical presentations and a tour of the quarry
the hydrogen-powered wheel loader was demonstrated in operation
Strabag will be testing the L 566 H prototype on a daily basis
A hydrogen filling station is being built to refuel the wheel loader directly at the quarry
The energy supplier Energie Steiermark will provide the green hydrogen required for this
Liebherr and Strabag are demonstrating how emissions can be reduced in a sector that is difficult to decarbonise by means of alternative fuels
Climate-neutral hydrogen produced with wind and water power or solar energy can be a key enabler for achieving the goal of climate neutrality set by Austria’s politicians
“Green hydrogen is an indispensable element of our future energy
As an important and valuable energy source
it helps replace fossil natural gas – especially in industry,” said Gewessler
“What makes the two-year test deployment at the Gratkorn quarry such a showcase project is
the joint approach of Liebherr and Strabag: two companies that are actively pushing decarbonisation forward.”

Sappi’s Gratkorn Mill can look back on more than 400 hundred years of papermaking at the site
which nestles by the river Mur in a beautiful part of Austria near the country’s second city Graz – dubbed one of the country’s “hidden secrets”
the focus today is very much on the future for the mill
which has benefited from a major reinvestment programme of some €25m (£21.4m) to improve quality and sustainability
As has been detailed in the pages of Printweek
in recent years the industry’s paper manufacturers have been battling turbulent market conditions and a dramatic decline in demand for some types of paper
As a result many mills and paper machines have been closed
or converted to produce packaging or other materials
and the European paper production landscape has changed dramatically with millions of tonnes of capacity for graphic arts papers taken out of the equation
and a visit to Gratkorn makes the scale of the undertaking apparent
It’s a huge mill with an enormous site that extends to around one million square metres
Gratkorn produces 250,000 tonnes of pulp per year for the mill’s own use
consuming some 1.2m cubic metres of wood – 60% of which is from sawmill by-products
PM9 at the site has capacity of 220,000tpa and
has produced wet-glue and self-adhesive label papers
with a big project just being completed to add the Parade Label wet strength label papers to its output
These papers are alkali- resistant and therefore require different chemistry
This also necessitates a sophisticated production system because waste – or ‘broke’
which goes back into the system – from wet strength and non-wet strength papers must be strictly separated
makes Magno paper in jumbo reels that are 8.5m-wide and weigh 80 tonnes
After additional coating the jumbo reel can weigh more than 100 tonnes
Seeing the scale of the operation at the mill is a reminder of the hugely technical and demanding processes that go into making high-quality papers in large volumes
Around 20% of production at Gratkorn is reels
with much of its output sheeted and as such the site also runs 11 Bielomatik sheeters
quality and sustainability are the key drivers for mill director Peter Putz
who oversees a team of more than 1,000 employees that work around the clock at the site
Gratkorn is Sappi’s flagship mill for its Magno range of high-quality coated woodfree papers
although importantly the group has also developed what it describes as a “carouselling” production system whereby
it can also produce Magno using its other mills in Europe to the same exacting standards if required – availability being a top priority for customers
like so much of modern life increasingly unpredictable
European sales director for commercial print John Clinton notes
that “a paper mill is not a fun place when it’s quiet” and as such the Sappi team devotes considerable resources to analysing the market and to advocating for print – including a range of guides and publications targeted at marketers showcasing print’s effectiveness and sustainability credentials
“What we’ve tried to do with our sales and marketing approach is to engage very heavily with our customers and the users behind our customers – people who use media for advertising or communication – to make the case for paper with case studies,” he explains
Sappi is also working with printers to help them with stock management
a thorny issue that can tie up much-needed cash
in studying a lot of printer businesses we find that their inventory levels are too high
that they are carrying too many different materials and too much of different sizes,” Clinton says
“We believe that with discussion and persuasion we can make a substantial difference to the cost of a printer’s business by changing some of the parameters used
And we have the resources to help our customers to do that,” he notes
the future of paper manufacturing is increasingly sophisticated
and the amount of effort and investment being devoted to sustainability is enormous
The group has recently celebrated achieving the top EcoVadis rating across all of its global manufacturing regions for the sixth consecutive year
It has completed a number of decarbonisation projects – including switching the boiler at Gratkorn from coal to renewable biomass energy – and has 80 projects underway across all its mills running up to 2025
and more to come as it refines its fresh decarbonisation plan for the 2025-2030 period
“We report CO2 emissions per tonne of paper produced and after these big projects we can see the CO2 reduction,” says Sappi Europe sustainability specialist Sandrina Machado
From its 2019 baseline the target is to reduce specific emissions by 25% by 2025
and of course it’s a continuous work,” she adds
It all means customers can be confident they are buying a product made with well-managed raw materials
with Sappi’s suppliers – and there are thousands of them – required to sign up to its Code of Conduct
Clinton has spent decades working in the paper industry and has seen many changes during his career
He remains enthusiastic about the future potential and the role Sappi can play in shaping it: “It’s an amazing industry based on using renewable resources.”
Sappi Gratkorn boasts a leading position among the biggest woodfree coated paper mills in Europe with a capacity of 950,000 tpy of paper on two paper machines and 250,000 tpy of integrated pulp
the mill's poduction capacity is not fully covered and Sappi Gratkorn is taking temporay commercial downtime to adjust output to demand
This also applied to integrated pulp production
after an extended maintenance-related pulp mill shut down in April
more temporary downtime will be taken in the second quarter
reducing pulp output by approximately 20 per cent.

A global desire for advanced energy and consumer products derived from sustainable
renewable resources is driving new trends in the marketplace
Modern consumers are increasingly concerned about the implications of climate change and are demanding increased alignment between corporate
and environmental goals that provide meaningful environmental outcomes
The paper industry’s contribution to global emissions has attracted the attention of society and governments
the paper industry emits just over half a billion tons of greenhouse gases (GHG)
which is large enough to create a significant financial impact across the industry
The disparity in carbon footprints of different mill facilities and the responses different countries maintain toward GHG emissions have the potential to dramatically change the competitive positions of paper producers
Because the financial impact of carbon is so uneven
we can expect the effects of the carbon and sustainability issues to vary greatly between organizations
It is particularly important for owners and their stakeholders to understand the relative position of each of their assets compared to their peers
Fisher International’s BI platform, FisherSolve Next (FSN), provides a comprehensive analysis of carbon emissions that is unique to the pulp and paper industry. Fisher’s Carbon Benchmarking database can be used by the pulp and paper industry for both policy considerations and commercial purposes
and it supports analysis of carbon emissions at both mill and macro levels with standardized measures and consistent methodology for the global industry
Two announcements by major industry players regarding site improvements that will impact decarbonization strategies have recently made headlines
and Fisher’s Carbon Benchmarking data illustrated the discrepancy in performance and correctly predicted the upgrades
FisherSolve data for the Eastover site shows it is a low-risk mill among uncoated freesheet mills in North America
The Eastover facility emits the highest amount of carbon in its peer group
though there are several mills that also perform significantly below the average range
FisherSolve data demonstrates that Gratkorn is a low-risk mill with enormous annual carbon (and also per-ton) emissions among coated woodfree producers in Europe
The facility emits the highest quantity of carbon in its peer group by a longshot; its closest peer emits significantly less carbon annually
there is a substantial difference in the carbon outputs between companies
The average of the fourth quartile emits roughly 2.25 times the carbon as the average of the first quartile
there are big differences between companies with fourth quartiles averaging twice that of first quartiles in most cases.
Participants in the global pulp and paper industry now have a way to evaluate their carbon emissions completely and comprehensively
Fisher’s Carbon Benchmarking is already being used by producers
which provides increased transparency into this topic—one that will become increasingly critical as sustainability initiatives continue to shape markets

such as sourcing obsolete replacement parts.
project manager of the modernisation project
said: ‘By using state-of-the-art automation and electrical systems
we can not only ensure paper production for our customers at the accustomed high level but also guarantees an easier support by our suppliers.’
Sappi's Gratkorn Mill has undergone significant development and investment in recent years
the Gratkorn Mill also produces various types of label papers.
Sappi expanded its portfolio of wet-glue label papers to include Parade Label Pro (non-wet-strength)
This was followed by Parade Face SG in January 2022
semi-gloss face stock paper for self-adhesive labels for a wide range of applications – such as food
After the ongoing long-term validation phase
in Autumn Sappi Europe will officially launch Parade Label WS
Parade Label WS offers high quality printing and finishing results for various applications
including returnable containers in the beverage and food industries.
Sappi Europe continues to take strides towards meeting its sustainability and climate commitments including enhancing its approach to water stewardship
increasing its share of renewable and clean energy by 11 percent and reducing total energy by 5 percent
reducing specific landfilled solid waste by 5 percent and decreasing specific GHG emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 25 percent by 2025.
two investments into renewing the water turbines at Gratkorn Mill’s hydro-electric power plant in 2018-2020 increased its hydro-electric generation by almost 10 percent
the complete modernization to shift from a coal boiler to a multi-fuel boiler in 2022
enabled the mill to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 30 percent as well as sharply reduce dust and nitrous oxide (NOx) emissions
Ongoing projects will further add to these impressive decarbonization milestones.
All effluent from Gratkorn Mill is oxygen-aerated and fully treated in the waste water treatment plant before it returns to the pure-water river Mur.
Plans have been revealed by Sappi Europe to upgrade and modernise its Gratkorn mill in Austria
the packaging and speciality paper manufacturer said the current upgrade and modernisation project would focus on Paper Machine 11 (PM11)
It will undergo “extensive modernisation of automation and electrical equipment including drives
quality control and inspection systems as well as upgrades to the coating profile and other areas”
During the preparatory phase this month and the main period of work in January
production on PM11 will be interrupted “for a number of weeks”
due to the need for a reorganisation of internal logistics
Given current market conditions of reduced demand and high customer inventories
Sappi Europe said it does not expect customer business to be disrupted during the project period
“This investment will improve and consolidate Gratkorn’s position as the leading producer of woodfree coated paper and demonstrates Sappi Europe’s continuing commitment to the commercial print business and belief in the continued important role of print media,” the company stated
The Gratkorn mill has received regular investment
In September the business had flagged up that it was set to extend capacity at Gratkorn while temporarily reducing capacity at its Carmignano mill in Italy
In the same month Sappi revealed that it had agreed a deal with Aurelius to sell its Maastricht Mill in the Netherlands
Sappi Europe is a division of Sappi Ltd (JSE)
Packaging and speciality paper manufacturer Sappi Europe is set to extend capacity at its mill in Gratkorn
while temporarily reducing capacity at its Carmignano mill in Italy
Production capacities for label papers will be extended at the Gratkorn mill “at the end of 2023”
The “double-digit million-euro” investment in technological innovations
will enable the mill to produce high quality wet-strength wet-glue label paper that is used in the beverage industry
Extensive technical innovations in the paper machine’s water and material cycles are also planned
said: “Our investment at Gratkorn underscores our strategy to establish Sappi as the leader within the label sector
adding to the supply of value adding products across our entire business.”
Sappi said it has invested recently in new technical equipment “and state-of-the-art production facilities” at Gratkorn
ranging from paper machines to formatting equipment
“and has transformed the production facility into a cutting-edge paper mill”
the company said it has temporarily reduced capacity at its Carmignano mill in Italy due to the continuing and sharp escalation of energy costs
The mill produces label and packaging grades
“The energy crisis adds to the already high costs for raw materials and transportation
presenting an extraordinary challenge not only for Sappi but also the industry as a whole,” Sappi stated
Sappi said its European sales team will be in further contact directly with customers to discuss the details of the implementation
Sappi Europe is a division of Sappi Ltd (JSE), headquartered in Johannesburg, South Africa. Last month the business posted record Q3 results but flagged the ongoing energy crisis as a potential risk for its European business
