We are happy to begin a new cooperation with Toscotec, who is renowned for its state-of-the-art technology and expertise.”

Matteo Giorgio Marrano, Sales Manager at Toscotec, says: “We are confident that this project will be a stepping stone to establishing a close partnership with APM going forward. This OPTIMA rewinder will increase their production efficiency, preserve paper qualities during winding, as well as deliver maximum safety for their mill personnel.”
