GERMANY - In August of 2015 Siempelkamp received another order for a new MDF ContiRoll® press line from the Vietnamese wood-based materials manufacturer VRG Dongwha MDF.
The subsidiary of the Joint Venture of Donghwa International and the Vietnam Rubber Group, one of the largest wood-based panels manufacturers in Asia, had already ordered Asia’s largest MDF line with a press length of 47 m from Siempelkamp in April 2010.
In order to economically produce and offer a broader product range for the continuously growing Vietnamese market for wood-based panels, VRG Dongwha MDF decided to buy another ContiRoll® press (Generation 8) with a length of 25.5 m. With the new investment, VRG Dongwha MDF aims at meeting the continuously increasing demand for thin boards in the future. The new ContiRoll® for the Vietnamese market will be able to manufacture thin MDF with a thickness ranging from 2 to 25 mm. The contractually guaranteed yearly production capacity of this ContiRoll® of the latest design amounts to 190,000 m³.
