On average, between five and
six cubic metres of timber and 350 tons/cubic metres of water plus 2000 kilowatt hours of electric power are required to produce one ton of pulp
TOTAL PRODUCTION EXCEEDS THREE MILLION TONS
The Port of Hamburg may be of constantly growing importance for Ilim Group and its partners and customers. Yet it still accounts for only part of total volume transported. Ilim Group owns three pulp and paper facto- ries, two modern corrugated board plants and the Sibgiprobum research institute. Its companies are located in Koryazkma in the Archangelsk Oblast (Administrative Unit), Bratsk, Irkutsk and Ust-Ilimsk in the Irkutsk Oblast, Kommunar in the Leningrad Oblast and Dmitrov in the Moscow Oblast. These plants produce 75 percent of all Russian pulp, 20 percent of its cardboard and ten percent of its paper. So the group’s production totals over 3.4 million tons. Last year about two million tons of that went for export. Around 80 percent of the total went to China, South Korea and Japan. Only then followed Eastern and Western Europe, as well as other countries in the world. So the Port of Hamburg can still boost its total. ■
