Partnership expands Monarch’s presence in Brazil, bringing its proven paper-machine technologies and consumables to mills with local engineering, installation, commissioning, and continuing service and support.

CARTERSVILLE, Ga., and AMERICANA, Brazil — August 11, 2026 — Monarch Paper Group LLC today announced a partnership with ENPROS Automação Industrial Ltda , a Brazilian industrial-automation and engineering firm, appointing ENPROS as its agent and representative for the pulp & paper industry in Brazil. Under the agreement, ENPROS will represent Monarch’s engineered paper-machine systems and provide local engineering, installation supervision, commissioning, and after-startup support.

The partnership covers Monarch’s core technologies for paper machines — including reel turn-up, sheet break detection, edge crack detection, and marking systems — together with Monarch’s high-quality consumables line: paperband, PSAT paperband tape, marking inks, and spare parts . Pairing Monarch’s engineered solutions and factory-tested equipment with ENPROS’s on-the-ground presence gives Brazilian mills a single, locally supported path from proposal through installation, startup, continuing service, and ongoing supply.

“Brazil is one of the world’s most important pulp & paper markets, and our customers there deserve proven solutions backed by strong local expertise. The ENPROS team has been a strong partner for many years and expanding that partnership made complete sense. With ENPROS, we’re committed to a smooth, well-supported experience for every mill we serve.”

—Wesley Sweeny, President, Monarch Paper Group LLC

Monarch and ENPROS are coordinating closely to ensure continuity of local support for mills with ongoing and upcoming projects, so customers experience a seamless transition and uninterrupted service throughout.

ENPROS brings deep familiarity with Brazilian industrial requirements, including qualified local field professionals, compliance with in-country labor and documentation standards, and coordination of work authorizations for any specialist personnel supporting a project. Installations are planned to fit within scheduled maintenance windows, minimizing disruption to production. Notably, ENPROS’s technical team already has hands-on experience with Ryeco marking systems — one of Monarch’s heritage brands — so Brazilian mills gain a partner that already knows the technology.

Monarch’s systems are backed by a structured quality process, including factory acceptance testing and defined post-startup support periods, so equipment arrives proven and performs from day one. ENPROS extends that rigor locally through technical supervision, commissioning support, and responsive service throughout the installation lifecycle.

“Representing Monarch lets us bring proven, high-performance systems to Brazilian mills with the local engineering and support they expect. We look forward to a strong, collaborative partnership.”

— Fernando Rossi, Sales Manager, ENPROS Industrial Automation Ltda

The companies are already collaborating on active opportunities with leading Brazilian paper producers and expect to announce specific project milestones as they are finalized.
