YIT lands contract for the mechanical maintenance at Mondi Dynäs' Väja mill
YIT and Mondi Dynäs have signed a maintenance agreement under which YIT will
assume responsibility for the mechanical maintenance at Mondi Dynäs AB's Väja
mill, starting 1 January 2009. The plant comprises a pulp mill and two Kraft
Paper lines.
In addition to developing maintenance activities, the aim is to enhance
cost-efficiency and usability. In order to achieve these goals, YIT has
developed an operational model in which special experts of different fields and
supplier partners play a significant role.
”We are a strong provider of industrial services in the Nordic region. Through
our partnership and maintenance agreements we have successfully enhanced the
productivity and cost-efficiency of our customers in different fields of
industry. This contract is a significant opening for us in the field of
forest-industry maintenance in Sweden,” says Pekka Frantti, President of YIT
Industrial Services.
”YIT aims to increase its industrial service offering in Sweden and other Nordic
countries. In Sweden, we are probably best known for our building systems
services, as we are the market leader in that field. We also have considerable
experience in industrial piping project deliveries, electric automation
implementations, as well as tank and boiler projects. Industrial maintenance
complements our service offering and enables us to provide our customers with
more comprehensive solutions,” Frantti points out.
YIT will implement the Väja mill maintenance contract in co-operation with SKF,
a company specialising in bearing and lubrication solutions, as well as the
condition monitoring of rotating devices.
