At the new address 10350-A Nations Ford Road, Charlotte, NC 28273, synergy effects and resources can be used to a noticeably greater extent for the benefit of all Oerlikon customers in approximately 4500 m² of office and commercial space, the company said in a media release.
“We are the preferred technology partner in the field of man-made fibre production in the US and not only want to remain so, but also to further expand our services for our customers. However, the previous premises no longer offered any opportunities for expansion,” explained Chip Hartzog, president of Oerlikon Textile Inc.
All processes were analysed in advance and will now be optimised in the new buildings. Incoming goods, warehouse, and dispatch will be merged, and inventory control will be strengthened. On top, the range of services in the repair area will be expanded.
- Turkiye's domestic producer price index rises in May 2024
- Fabric makes up over 64% of China's textile exports to India
- Vietnam's manufacturing sector shows slight improvement in May
- BASF inaugurates second polymer dispersions production line in China
- Slight or modest growth in most US Fed districts in early Apr-mid-May
“In addition to our services in the area of filament and carpet yarn systems, we will also be able to offer our customers repair services for staple fibre components such as crimpers or nonwoven systems in the future,” added Hartzog. This will further strengthen the market position for the Oerlikon Barmag, Oerlikon Neumag, and Oerlikon Nonwoven brands.
Oerlikon Textile Inc has been active in the manmade fibres business in the US for over 55 years. In addition to the sale of Staple Fibre, BCF, IDY, POY, FDY, and texturing plants, the product portfolio also includes upgrades and modernisation of old plants, service and training offers as well as repair services and spare parts supplies.
