The Directors of Leaf Resources advise that a Memorandum of Understanding has been signed with Norske Skog Industries Australia Ltd to work together to evaluate yields from the Radiata pine using Leaf Resources’ GlycellTM process.

(Andritz’s is a leading global supplier of plant, equipment and services for pulp and paper making and other industries).
