Taghleef increases coated film capacity

Taghleef Industries, in partnership with Invico, has increased its coated films capacity for its Extendo line of high-barrier films manufactured from BoPP as well as bio-based and compostable BoPLA films.

To meet market needs, Taghleef and Invico decided to start the production of coated BoPP and BoPLA films. The project, which started in 2010, includes the purchase and installation of two modern production lines for coating films with a total capacity of 12,000 tons a year. The first line will be operative from Q4 2012, starting with acrylic coated films.
