Andritz Perfojet Marks 40 Years in Nonwovens Technology

ANDRITZ Perfojet, a developer of nonwovens technology, is marking 40 years of operation. The company is known for its hydroentanglement systems, which enable fiber bonding without binders and has installed more than 300 Jetlace™ units globally. These systems support applications including filtration, geotextiles and industrial products, contributing to advancements in efficiency and material performance.

In recent years, the company has expanded its focus on sustainability. Its spunlace lines and drying technologies facilitate the use of fully sustainable fibers while offering energy savings of up to 15%.
