The order is included in ANDRITZ’s order intake for the fourth quarter of 2026. Start-up is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027.
The state-of-the-art neXline spunlace line is designed for high-capacity operation and consistent web quality. It will be equipped with ANDRITZ TT cards, globally recognized in the wipes market for their outstanding performance. “The line will produce wipes in the basis weight range of 30–80 gsm, meeting local market requirements and enabling a wide variety of fiber blends,” states Servet Gerz, General Manager of Aksan Kozmetik A.S.
Zafer Kutanoglu, Chairman of Aksan Kozmetik A.S., adds: “With this investment, we are taking an important step toward producing our own parent rolls in-house. ANDRITZ’s high-capacity spunlace technology and the proven TT cards will help us ensure consistent quality and respond quickly to changing market demand in Türkiye. After commissioning this spunlace line, we will immediately order a second line.”
