Kotkamills is launching its new range of consumer board products: The folding boxboard range will be covered by the AEGLE brand and the food service range by the ISLA brand. The standard board ranges will be launched in July 2016 when Kotkamills’ new board machine starts. The option of water-based dispersion coated barriers will be added in the Autumn. The new machine will for the first time allow barrier coatings to be applied directly on the cartonboard machine as part of normal production.
“Brand owners and designers are constantly looking for new and better options for creating attractive packaging while answering to the growing consumer demand for ecological products," says Markku Hämäläinen, CEO of Kotkamills. "With AEGLE and ISLA, we offer both sustainable and cost effective solutions that do not compromise the freedom to create unique designs."
