Don & Low introduces new meltblown nonwoven products.


As a result of a multi-million investment into the latest production technologies.

In June 2016, Thrace Group member company Don & Low will start production and supply of meltblown nonwovens from its plant in Forfar, Scotland. This multi-million euro investment into the latest Oerlikon Neumag technology brings further expansion of Don & Low's product range and adds capability to offer benefits to new markets and applications by the introduction of innovative materials.

With this important meltblown investment Don & Low will develop new products in collaboration with its customers across all markets and will continue to focus on newer markets in filtration, automotive, medical and advanced composites.

The line has a web width of 160cm and utilises a range of polymers including polypropylene, polyethylene and thermoplastic polyurethane. With additional features including on line air permeability, electrostatic charge capability, gap control calendar and multi-width slitting, it will produce meltblown and composites to exact customer requirements.
