Reifenhauser Reicofil has delivered two nonwoven lines to Sinaatec Spa, a major player in the Algerian nonwoven industry. The company was established in 2017 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Madar Holding. The two lines, a 3.20 metres-wide single-beam meltblown line and 3.20 metres-wide Composite Bico line, will target the medical and hygiene sectors.

“The demand for nonwovens remains high. We see further growth potential in the North and Central African markets. The meltblown line is scheduled to be commissioned as early as this year in September, while the start of the composite line is planned for autumn 2023. Sinaatec’s local sites and infrastructure provide space for another plant, so further expansion is possible,” Mohamed Lamine Bouchelouche, president and CEO at Sinaatec, said in a press release.

“We are very pleased to install our state-of-the-art production lines in Sinaatec’s advanced production facility for high quality nonwovens. Despite an initially digital-only business initiation due to the pandemic, we already have a very cooperative relationship and look forward to further collaboration,” Boerge Wessling, managing director at Reifenhauser Reicofil, said.
