Pulp and paper

Wood is a world class EPC contractor to the pulp, paper and related forest industries.

Mills devoted to producing every major grade of pulp and paper products have generally used traditional methods but continually find themselves needing upgrades to comply with environmental regulations and to stay competitive by  increasing machine speeds and production output. Wood has skilled technical staff to consult with customers on the best approaches to greenfield facilities or alternatives for brownfield improvements to develop  more efficient production.

Wood provides a wide range of engineering and construction services to pulp and paper manufacturers. We understand the industry’s needs and have delivered hundreds of pulp and paper projects. As producers strive to compete more favourably in the global market, they rely heavily on upgrading to technologically advanced and integrated mills. Wood offers a complete range of services with dedicated and knowledgeable specialists to perform production upgrades for better performance. Our services start in consulting, sharing our industry expertise to determine the feasibility of revamping or adding paper machines.

We have the capability to conduct engineering studies, pre-FEED work and estimates before embarking on EPC and construction management. We follow through with control system upgrades and complete project management. We have successfully completed projects for many of the world’s largest producers in multiple locations. These same paper manufacturers have come back to Wood time and again for additional projects.

Our emphasis includes environmental studies and upgrades to assure regulatory compliance. We also provide water treatment assessment and design to maintain waste minimisation and reduced environmental impact.
