Switzerland-based Rieter Textile Systems — has sold a new Rieter spunlace line to Russia-based
Avangard, a manufacturer of fabrics for hygiene and wipes applications. The line will be an
addition to the Rieter spunlace line already in operation at Avangard.
Rieter’s JETlace® series is part of the spunlace line sold to Avangard.
The new line includes opening and blending machines from France-based Laroche S.A.;
France-based NSC nonwoven’s Excelle® card and winder; Rieter’s JETlace® series; and a Rieter dryer.
The line is scheduled to go online in the first half of 2009.
