Parason has supplied and commissioned an integrated stock preparation system for a molded fiber packaging project in Türkiye. The system processes recovered paper such as local old corrugated containers (OCC), old newsprint (ONP) and newsprint into pulp ready for molded fiber packaging production.
Papermart reported the commissioning on October 1, 2026. The article did not name the customer or state the plant’s capacity.
What Does Parason’s Molded Fiber Packaging System Include?
The scope covers pulping, high-density (HD) cleaning, screening, reject handling, fibre thickening and stock preparation. Parason also handled process and plant engineering, piping, instrumentation, factory acceptance testing (FAT), and supervision of erection and commissioning.
Why Is Molded Fiber Packaging Gaining Attention?
Molded fiber packaging is made from recovered paper and is used as a fibre-based alternative to plastic in protective and food-service packaging. Using local OCC and ONP as raw material ties production to existing recovered-paper supply chains rather than virgin pulp.
A complete stock preparation line matters because pulp cleanliness and consistency determine the quality of the moulded product.
Market Reaction and Industry Response
No customer or analyst comments were published with the announcement. On September 21, 2026, Papermart also reported that Parason dispatched a sludge screw press to a paper mill in Africa, indicating the company continues to win equipment orders across several regions.
What Happens Next?
Attention turns to the plant’s start-up and ramp-up. The customer’s name, output capacity and product range are the details to watch, along with whether more molded fiber projects follow in Türkiye and neighbouring markets.
