Pehart Group reduces energy consumption by 10% through machinery reengineering for tissue paper production

Pehart Group, a leader in the production and processing of household paper products in Romania and one of the largest tissue paper manufacturers in SouthEastern Europe, has initiated an extensive process of upgrading and reengineering its machinery for tissue paper production. The company has invested over 12 million euros to optimise the energy performance of these machines in its factories in Petrești-Sebeș and Dej. As a result, a reduction of up to 20% in energy consumption per machine will be achieved, while at the company level the energy resource savings will reach up to 10%, according to Business-Review.eu.

“The upgrade and reengineering of the machinery for household tissue paper production will significantly increase their energy efficiency. Optimising our energy resources is not the only advantage of aligning our production technologies with the latest standards. We also estimate an increase in production capacity and the quality of tissue paper”, explains Pehart Group’s Tissue Paper Production Director, Cristian Silaș.

The Romanian company collaborated on this project with some of the top European equipment manufacturers in the industry.

“The upgraded production machines have the capability to achieve optimal product quality with lower energy consumption and, at the same time, have a lifespan up to three times longer than conventional refining plates. We estimate that the machine upgrade process for household tissue paper production lines will continue into 2024”, emphasises Cristian Silaș.

Furthermore, the investment in modern production equipment and technologies is a constant in the company’s efforts to offer premium-quality products to its customers. In the past two years, Pehart Group has launched new production lines, diversified its product portfolio (introducing three varieties of wet wipes under the Pufina brand), and entered new international markets. With its industrial and household products already present in 19 countries, Pehart Group aims to expand its international operations and strengthen the position of its most popular brands, especially Pufina and Alint.
