Plant Relocation

The shakeout in the paper industry has led to many closures and thus a great supply of second hand plants. When being relocated and modernised, these plants are an interesting economic alternative to new ones. However, this applies only to investment in small plants or investment in niche products.

Since financing costs have also become an important factor of economic efficiency, the reduction of the specific investment costs has become quite important.

A professional settlement of the transfer of a second hand facility can

reduce investment costs by 30 - 40 %
reduce investment implementation time by about 20 - 25 %

Professional settlement of plant relocation embraces:

Preliminary project
Selection of machinery
Basic planning
Definition of project team / project structure / scope of supply
As-built evaluation, collection of documentation
Component labelling
Disassembly, packing, transport
Basic Engineering
Procurement of new and supplementary parts
Detailed Engineering
Overhauling, modernisation
Installation, commissioning
