Graz, 28 August 2006.  International Andritz Group received an order
from Hunan Tiger Forest & Paper Group Co., Ltd., Changsha, Hunan
Province, China to supply the main equipment and technologies for its
greenfield pulp mill in Huaihua, Hunan Province.  The order value for
Andritz is approximately 100 MEUR.
The new mill will produce 400,000 t/y of bleached kraft pulp.  The
raw material consists of 70% of softwood (masson pine and fir) and
30% of hardwood (alder, poplar, eucalyptus, etc.).  Start-up of the
mill is scheduled for the First Quarter of 2008.
A decisive factor for the Tiger Group to award the order to Andritz
was the capability of Andritz to secure all connecting parameters
between the process islands based on proprietary Andritz key
technologies for the mill and the experience from similar projects in
the past.
Andritz’s scope of supply comprises the equipment and technologies
for wood handling, cooking, washing, screening and bleaching, pulp
drying and bale handling, chemical recovery boiler and evaporation,
as well as lime kiln and recausticizing.  With the proven Andritz
technology and processes the mill fulfils the highest environmental
