JSC “Svetlogorsk Cellulose and Paper Mill” is the only producer in the Republic of Belarus of sulfite bleached pulp from coniferous wood. The full‑cycle enterprise is equipped with modern automated production lines, has significant capacities and highly qualified personnel. For the Svetlogorsk district it is a city‑forming object: about 65 % of the total industrial output comes from the cellulose and paper mill, making it a key driver of local economic, infrastructure and social development.

The Svetlogorsk cellulose and paper mill fully satisfies the demand of Belarusian processors for sulfite bleached pulp while simultaneously expanding export supplies, thereby strengthening the position of the national cellulose and paper industry in the global market.

The mill’s production capacity allows it to produce up to 400,000 tonnes of product per year. The technological cycle is fully closed: from raw material preparation to final packaging – this ensures high quality control at every stage.

The plant’s products meet strict international standards and are in demand both within Belarus and abroad. Full coverage of domestic market needs provides a solid foundation for stable export growth.

New Horizons

In the active phase is a major investment project to build a plant for producing bagging paper. The raw material for the new production will be sulfite pulp, and the target product will be 160,000 tonnes of high‑value‑added biodegradable packaging. Various types of paper bags and packaging for food and non‑food goods will be produced from it. Implementing this ambitious project will strengthen the enterprise’s position as a vital link in the country’s industrial complex and ensure the achievement of high production performance. The direction is especially relevant amid the resurgent global trend toward eco‑friendly packaging and opens new prospects for the industry’s development.

Here you build a career and take pride in your work

For almost 60 years the Svetlogorsk cellulose and paper mill has remained one of the district’s leading enterprises and a place where young people willingly come. The reason is simple: it offers not only stable employment and good conditions but also an atmosphere in which one wants to develop, participate in interesting projects, and build a career.

At the plant, they are creating a modern and comfortable working environment so that every day on the production line brings pleasure, and choosing a profession and a company becomes a lifelong commitment. The staff of CJSC “Svetlogorsk CKK” are people of action: hardworking, responsible, and reliable. They are those who don’t just dream but take action and make it happen.

The company offers a full cycle of packaging production—from raw materials to finished logistics services—combining standard solutions for the mass market with complex custom orders. Selling cellulose as a semi‑finished product is not the plant’s ultimate goal: the factory focuses on deep processing and creating a wide range of high‑value‑added products that are well known to customers and perform reliably in real‑world conditions.

Corrugated boxes

Corrugated cardboard remains a versatile packaging material that combines strength, lightness, and cost‑effectiveness. Svetlogorsk CKK offers solutions for any task—from standard boxes to complex structural elements.

The assortment includes standard boxes for popular product categories such as dairy products, canned goods, household chemicals, and confectionery. If standard dimensions are unsuitable, they will manufacture packaging to custom sizes. To improve consumer properties and logistics convenience, they cut handles, ventilation holes, and non‑standard valves.

Visual design is also a priority. They apply printing in two to three colors: placing logos, usage instructions, and other marketing information.

Special attention is given to complex constructions. On professional equipment, they perform cutting to create trays, bases, and other elements of non‑standard shape. They carry out intricate cutting—trays, bases, and other clever shapes.

Logistics and delivery are ready to start immediately after production. Finished boxes are tightly packed into transport packs and wrapped

The design principle is simple: a corrugated inner layer (or layers) and flat outer sheets are bonded together. Three‑layer cardboard with a single wave is the most popular option. Most standard boxes for lightweight and medium‑weight packaging are made from it. A five‑layer material, which has two waves and three flat layers, is intended for large and heavy loads that require increased protection during transport.

An important parameter is the wave pitch: the finer it is, the smoother the sheet surface, which is ideal for high‑quality printing of logos and advertising. However, such a structure absorbs impacts less effectively. Therefore, choosing the type of corrugation is always a compromise between the aesthetics of the packaging and its protective properties.

Standard sheet sizes are usually 1030 × 1200 mm or 1030 × 2000 mm. But production is not limited to these dimensions: any size can be made to meet specific customer requirements. In other words, corrugated cardboard offers a flexible solution—from lightweight packaging to ultra‑durable containers for complex logistics chains.
