Redefining hygiene production through innovation and circularity
Andritz will showcase its full range of advanced absorbent hygiene products (AHP) converting and recycling solutions – from high‑quality converting processes for adult, feminine and baby care, to recycling systems that transform diaper production waste into valuable raw materials, to next‑generation adult care lines delivering high efficiency, superior super absorbent polymers (SAP) management, and operator‑friendly performance.
The diaper recycling system leverages the combined expertise of Andritz Diatec in hygiene converting and Andritz Laroche in recycling processes. This AHP recycling line ensures efficient separation of SAP, fluff pulp, and plastics, enabling closed‑loop reuse for more sustainable manufacturing.
Alongside these solutions, Andritz will also highlight its high‑precision ultrasonic lamination technologies, featuring modular full‑servo systems designed for stability, low waste, and easy customization. These innovations underline Andritz’s commitment to delivering sustainable, flexible, and high‑performance technologies for the hygiene industry.
