Pureko to install a new Andritz eXcelle needle-punching line for the recycling of garments. Founded in 2009, Pureko is one of the most important producers of nonwovens in Poland. The company’s nonwoven products are mainly used for wadding; they are free of chemicals, do not involve any health hazards, and are hypoallergenic.
Pureko’s products carry top certificates such as INTERTEK, FIRA, OEKO-TEX, and the National Institute of Hygiene.
The final products will have fabric weights ranging from 300-500 gsm, and production capacity will be up to 750 kg/h. Installation and start-up are scheduled for the third quarter of 2021. This is the second ANDRITZ line to be supplied to Pureko, thus demonstrating the strong partnership between both companies.
Three years ago, Pureko invested in a new, modern plant supplied by ANDRITZ Asselin-Thibeau to produce soft nonwovens in the furniture, textile, and clothing industries.
The new line will enable Pureko to continue its ongoing growth.
ANDRITZ is a globally leading supplier of plants, equipment, and services for hydropower stations, the pulp and paper industry, the metalworking and steel industries, and solid/liquid separation in the municipal and industrial sectors as for animal feed and biomass pelleting.
