Nonwovens and speciality papers group Ahlstrom is to consolidate its nonwoven wipes fabrics manufacturing platform in Italy, with the aim of increasing capacity, efficiency and breadth of product range, the company said in a statement today.
Ahlstrom says the production of wipes will be located in two out of three existing manufacturing sites, Mozzate and Cressa, while the Carbonate plant will be closed. All the plants are located in the Milan region and belong to the group’s Home & Personal Nonwovens business area.
