Increasing the Resource Efficiency of „Interpred Partner” AD

The project is focused on increasing the resource efficiency of the production process of Interpred Partner AD through introducing a technological solution that is pilot for Bulgaria in terms of the manufacture of toilet paper and kitchen rolls. Activities to be implemented are based on the Resource Efficiency Audit that has been performed with regard to proposed action. Interpred Partner AD is specialized in the manufacture of tissue products, popular under the ZEBRA brand. The production site targeted by the resource efficiency measures includes the company's factory for sanitary products ZEBRA in the town of Gotze Delchev. As evident from the Reference (Report) on the production and sales of industrial products for 2016 the company offers 3 main groups of products: toilet paper lt;=36 sm, kitchen rolls and table covers and napkins made of paper, cellulose wadding and webs of soft cellulose. Under Element A of the procedure the project includes an activity for introduction of a pilot technological solution for unrolling toilet paper and kitchen rolls that will provide for optimizing the production process through reducing the quantity of raw materials used, and decreasing the quantities of waste generated (paper waste and plastic packaging waste) in the existing manufacture. The new solution is a production (process) innovation which is not presently applied in Bulgaria and will be introduced through the purchase and bringing into operation of a new line for unrolling toilet paper and kitchen rolls. Under Element B the project includes an activity for elaboration of the Resource Efficiency Audit regarding the present project as well as actions aimed at the multiplication of the projects results - these include the organization of a round table with the participation of other entities from the sanitary products sector, as well as a publication in a digital media to promote the process innovation to be implemented within the project.
