HELSINKI, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Finland's Metsa Group has started up its new 1.2 billion euro ($1.4 billion) pulp mill in Aanekoski, central Finland, the company said on Wednesday.
Deliveries from the new mill would begin in early September and the plant was due to reach its full capacity of 1.3 million tonnes of pulp in about a year, the firm said.
The plant is set to make Metsa the world's largest seller of softwood pulp ahead of Sweden's Sodra, Canada's Canfor Corp CFX.TO and Mercer International MRIu.TO .
