Riyadh-Mubasher: Middle East Paper Co. (MEPCO) has delayed the final phase of developing its second production line until 1 May 2016.
The decision aims to meet clients’ orders before the shutdown that is planned for the upgrade.
The development will gradually boost the line's production capacity to 180,000 tonnes per annum from 150,000 tonnes over three years.
The company earlier announced it plans to complete the upgrade at the end of the first quarter of 2016.
