Another paper and pulp facility owned by Sappi, the Ngodwana Mill is located near the city of Mbombela (Nelspruit), Mpumalanga, and has been operating for over 50 years. The mill produces paper grade pulp for its own and market consumption and newsprint, containerboard and dissolving wood pulp.
The mill produces 340 000 tons of paper pulp for its own consumption, 255 000 tons of dissolving wood pulp and 350 000 tons of paper (newsprint and kraft linerboard used for packaging) per year. The majority of the mill’s products are exported.
Ngodwana Mill has undergone numerous significant expansions including the addition of two paper machines, a coal-fired power boiler and a dissolving wood pulp plant. The mill generates its own energy in the form of steam and electricity from renewable and other sources. On average, the mill exports power to the national grid, helping to fuel the growing local economy.
