selling paper from the back of a motorcycle in 1982 and now heads a company that is in the Top 50 of the world’s largest pulp and paper companies with yearly pulp and paper making capacity of 4.5 million metric tons. Sun Paper prides itself in only
installing the very best when it comes to technology across its mills and plants. Ying says, “At Sun Paper, we always like to do something new, something better and, of course, something our competitors are not doing. “We took a trip to Europe to
have a look at Andritz reject line references and were very impressed – Andritz is the obvious leader in this field.”

The pulping system for PM32 was delivered by Andritz at the same time, which helped when it came to installation. The reject line was later upgraded to include a heavy-duty Andritz Franssons Shredder FRX2000, which was installed in June 2017. Chen Fang, sales & marketing
