In early 2025, a leading hygiene manufacturer in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, sought a complete napkin paper production line to expand capacity and modernize its operations. The project involved integrating a high-speed napkin paper folding machine with a matching packing machine to meet growing demand for quality, eco-friendly napkins while complying with local standards.
With over 15 years of experience and a nationwide distribution network, the customer faced challenges with their existing napkin paper production line. The old folding and packing equipment suffered from low efficiency, high energy consumption, and limited customization, which hampered their competitiveness against international brands.
Core requirements for the new production line included:
Whole line speed (including folding and packing machines) of at least 1000 pieces per minute.
Adoption of energy-saving technologies to reduce operational costs and carbon emissions.
Ability to produce folded, embossed, and custom-sized napkins via the folding machine, with an automatic packing machine that matches its speed.
Stable line performance, on-site support, operator training, and availability of local spare parts for the folding and packing machines.
The line and finished products must meet Saudi hygiene, safety standards, and food contact certifications.
Our team customized a complete napkin paper production line solution based on Saudi market analysis and local case studies. The proposed configuration included:
Equipped with the high-speed napkin paper folding machine (XY-OQ-7000A) and the matching napkin tissue packing machine (XY-BT-298), achieving an estimated 15% energy saving.
The folding machine features custom embossing and folding options, for flexible output to meet varying market demands.
The packing machine is fully automatic connect with the folding machine, reducing labor requirements and boosting overall efficiency.
Digital control enables real-time parameter monitoring and optimization. After-sales support includes on-site installation, 24/7 remote assistance, operator training, and a 1-year warranty.
Investment recovery was estimated at 18 months based on a cost-benefit analysis.The 6-month project (March to August 2025) covered production, shipping, installation, and training for the entire line. Key challenges were addressed as follows:
Collaborated with the customer to prepare necessary documentation and coordinate inspections for smooth customs clearance.
A 2-week on-site training program on the folding and packing machines ensured operator proficiency. The line was commissioned in June and launched mass production in July with stable operation.
Key outcomes from the new production line include:
Daily output doubled with the matched folding and packing machines, and production costs were reduced by 12%.
Improved softness and absorbency of the finished napkins, contributing to an 8% market share growth within 6 months.
Line downtime was maintained at less than 1% monthly, supported by timely after-sales service for the folding and packing machines.
The customer's Operations Director, Mohamed Ali, praised the solution and service, expressing interest in future cooperation.
