A KEY STEP in strengthening customer engagement was Metsä Board’s acquisition of the Winschoten Sheeting and Distribution Hub in the Netherlands. As one of Europe’s most advanced facilities – with an annual capacity of approximately 100,000 tonnes – the hub offers customers speed, flexibility, and increased resilience. “We can now add this service for our customers, giving them the advantage of relieving them from their stock management, and allowing them to target vol- atile retail business and respond to the needs of their customers,” Boyle assesses the newcomer. The addition of Winschoten brings Metsä Board physically and operationally closer to strategic mar- kets, improving availability, service levels and agility – three areas customers consistently value.
