pulping (TMP) plant at Masson-Angers has propelled Papier Masson

others rub shoulders, one might be
inclined to think that a small player like Papier Masson Ltée
would go almost unnoticed…
And yet, these days, these “Goliaths” are quite definitely
taking a closer look at what is happening in Masson-Angers, some
30 km east of Hull, where newsprint manufacturer Papier Masson
Ltée is conducting some trial runs of an original, audacious
thermo-mechanical pulping or TMP system.
