SWISS KRONO commissions new particleboard plant with CPS+
First board for birthday
September 13 was a holiday for SWISS KRONO AG in a double sense: In the presence of her mother, whose birthday is on that day, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors Ines Kaindl-Benes and her guests celebrated the production of the first board at the new particleboard plant at the SWISS KRONO site in Menznau.
Dieffenbacher supplied all the essential machines, from gluing through raw board handling, for the replacement project. Dieffenbacher project manager Jens Hauffe; Bernd Bielfeldt, head of the Wood business unit; and Christian Dieffenbacher, as a member of the management board, were on site and shared SWISS KRONO’s excitement about the on-time and smooth start-up of the plant.
A highlight of the new plant is the EVOjet P gluing system. It ensures optimum gluing and significant glue savings compared to conventional systems and requires minimum care and maintenance. With its order of a CPS+ in late 2015, SWISS KRONO was among the first companies to acquire the new gold standard for efficient continuous press systems. The cutting-edge press offers optimum board quality, reduced material consumption, highest productivity and lowest lifecycle costs. The new production line in Menznau is already the fourth plant with CPS+ in operation worldwide.

25 -year study states that forests with five tree species capture 57% more carbon compared to monocultures
Mixed forests store more carbon and strengthen the fight against climate change forests play a fundamental role in carbon capture and storage, which helps reduce the speed of global warming. However, not all forests have the same capacity for carbon absorption and retention. A recent study of the University of Friburg has shown that mixed forests, those that contain various tree species, are significantly more efficient in carbon capture than monocultures. These findings reinforce the importance of promoting forest diversity as a key strategy against climate change.
