Innovia increases BOPP coating capacity

As part of a wider series of investments across the business, Innovia Films is increasing its BOPP coating capacity at its site in Wigton, UK. Work is currently underway with additional capacity to be ready during quarter three, 2011. 

‘Increased demand for products right across the business has forced us to rethink best practices and take stock of future needs to ensure that the business remains strong moving forward,’ said Alexander van't Riet, global sales and marketing director. ‘We have listened to our customers and decided action was required to strengthen our capabilities and expand capacity. 

‘The manufacturing team identified a modernization to improve our coating capacity in such a way for our packaging, labels and tobacco businesses that we are ready for the next three-to-five years in terms of quality and growth.’
