(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Ahlstrom Corporation PRESS RELEASE 23.8.2010 at 15.45
Ahlstrom, a global leader in nonwowens and specialty papers, today announces the
completion of an investment to increase the speed of an off-line coater at its
Jacareì plant in Brazil.
The higher speed of the coater will markedly increase the coating capacity of
the plant. This investment will enable Ahlstrom to better satisfy the growing
demand for coated papers and further reinforce Ahlstrom's leadership in the
Brazilian and South American markets.
The Jacareì plant mainly produces one-side coated papers for release liners,
labels, packaging and other coated specialties.
A large part of Ahlstrom's coated papers are also produced in Europe at the
sites located in Stenay, France, and Osnabrück, Germany.
Stenay, Osnabrück and Jacareì plants are part of the Label and Processing
Business Area. The business area operates seven production sites located in
France (3), Germany (2), Italy (1) and Brazil (1).
