Old Newspapers and magazines

More than 330,000 metric tonnes per annum of old newspapers and old magazines are required to be recycled into newsprint."

Power

Power is supplied from the national grid. In addition, MNI uses the latest eco-friendly and state-of-the-art technology combined hear and power plant to produce electricity and steam, allowing the mill to produce high quality and cost-effective newsprint.

Water

MNI uses 14 megalitres of water each day. MNI is proud that our strict environmental controls and procedures ensure that the water used flows back to the river without upsetting the fragile river ecology. In fact, a 5-day retention pond in which local fish species are reared is living proof of our clean effluent.

MNI has invested millions of Ringgit into the training of team members to ensure a high standard of performance and safety standards that are on par with any of the more established mills in the world.
The mill employs more than 300 people directly and works closely with local contractors that service the mill.
