Germany-based Oerlikon Neumag reports it has received an order from an existing customer in Italy for a bicomponent staple fiber plant capable of producing polyester, polypropylene and polyethylene sheath/core fibers. Oerlikon Neumag expects to commission the plant during the second half of 2017.
“The investment is being made in the scope of a planned extension of our customer’s staple fiber production capacities,” said Gerrit van Loenen, the staple fiber sales director responsible for this project. “As a total solution provider, we were able to convince our customer with our technology.”
