JOOL Invest secures liquidity for growth - Partnership with Lessebo Paper
Zanders Paper GmbH increases production due to good order situation. Shareholder JOOL Invest AB secures liquidity for growth. Since the beginning of its involvement with Zanders Paper, JOOL has contributed further expertise and a large network in the paper business, which has a positive effect on purchasing processes and the development of new sales markets.
At the "Luxury Packaging 2019" trade fair in London (11 to 12 September), Zanders Paper already had a joint stand with Lessebo Paper, a Swedish paper mill that also belongs to the JOOL Group. The two paper manufacturers will also be presenting themselves together at "Labelexpo" (24 to 27 September, Brussels, Stand 4C 32) to exchange existing business contacts and open up new markets.
Terje Haglund, Managing Director of Zanders Paper: "With JOOL Invest as a shareholder, we are successfully completing the restructuring of Zanders Paper and achieving the planned growth. Many thanks to all involved for their confidence in the future of Zanders Paper". In particular, the cooperation with the works council and the IGBCE trade union has been very constructive in recent months, says Haglund.
Due to the strengthened financial situation, Zanders Paper will further intensify the development of Zanbarrier, the portfolio of oil- and grease-resistant food papers; the focus here is on the fluorocarbon-free Zanbarrier NGR (Natural Grease Resistant). The further development of the high-speed inkjet paper Zanjet, currently available coated on both sides in gloss and silk, is also being driven forward: Trials with qualities for completely new applications are already taking place. At the same time, there is a very good order situation for the traditional brands Chromolux, Zanlabel, Zanpack, Silver Digital, RX Nature and Zankraft.
