As a leader in the development and manufacture of special flexible packaging and labeling films, Jindal Films provides a large range of solutions such as metalized films, multilayer white opaque films, and coated films.
The company has production affiliates both in Europe (Virton in Belgium, Brindisi in Italy, and Kerkrade, The Netherlands), and in the U.S. (Shawnee in Oklahoma, and LaGrange in Georgia). Sales offices of Jindal are located in not only North America and Europe but also in Asia.
The European branch of Jindal Films is currently expanding its metallizing capabilities in Brindisi. Another metallizer will make it possible to grow the capacity of the plant by some 10 thousand tons. The commissioning is planned for the 2nd half of 2017.
The news follows the successful installation and commissioning of another new metallizer in the beginning of 2016, running today at its full capacity.
Alessandro Fontanarosa, Brindisi Operations Director at Jindal Films Europe, said: "Supply reliability is key for our customers and this investment reinforces our commitment to providing them with a long-term strategy. Aligning with the new 10.5 m extrusion line currently being installed, this additional capability will provide a superior service and quality combined with the highest level of manufacturing efficiency".
Vito Signore, Venture Manager at Jindal Films Europe, echoes the words of his colleague: "These additional assets further strengthen our technology capability in delivering large volumes of high quality MET films, while expanding the flexibility to produce a wide range of innovative products."
