The Manmade Fibers segment of the Swiss Oerlikon Group is entering into a strategic partnership with the Italian company Teknoweb Materials s.r.l. aimed at extending the nonwovens production systems portfolio to include the high-growth market for disposable nonwovens.

The Manmade Fibers segment of the Swiss Oerlikon Group will be represented with its two Oerlikon Barmag and Oerlikon Neumag competence brands. ´In a market that is proving to be increasingly difficult, we will set new trends with our innovations and once again change the markets´, promises André Wissenberg, Head of Marketing, Corporate Communications and Public Affairs.

Oerlikon Barmag is one of two companies worldwide that deliver machine solutions for the production of HMLS yarn. The material is extremely tear resistant, but elastic and temperature as well as dimensionally stable. It is predominantly used in high-speed tyres, which´as a result of the high speeds achieved´are subjected to particularly high loads.
