The grand opening of the new terminal was celebrated on Feb. 7, with more than 100 participants from around South Africa and the neighboring countries, including customers and local trade media.
Johannesburg is the largest market area with highest growth potential in the region. Located in Germiston, the new terminal features both one and two-meter-wide slitting capabilities. The introduction of two-meter-wide slitting capability enhances UPM Raflatac's service offer range to be able to provide even more MEGA (net width) services.
