Mondi Invests in Stambolijski Mill in Bulgaria to Reduce Water Use

SEATTLE (Scrap Monster): Mondi is committed to reducing water use and increasing water recycling in its operations. A great local initiative on reducing water use comes Mondi's Stambolijski mill in Bulgaria. In 2023, the local team has identified opportunities to reduce water use in its pulp and paper processes by installing a turbo blower on the paper machine and a cooling tower in the turbine and evaporation area. 

The Company carefully monitors the amount of water they withdraw by source and release back to the aquatic environment. In 2023, 92% of the water used was released back to the acquatic environment.

The actions implemented have reduced specific contact water consumption at the mill by 30% against the 2020 baseline.

Mondi is a global leader in packaging and paper.
