How
To Use This International Buyers’ Guide:
For the 35th year in a row,
our annual Buyers’ Guide lists nearly every supplier and producer
of nonwovens around the globe. Readers have access, in one comprehensive
issue, to information on suppliers of machinery and equipment, raw
materials and roll goods as well as contract service specialists,
consulting services and associations. The listings include contact
addresses, phone and fax numbers and e-mail and website addresses.
• |
SECTION I lists suppliers of Machinery and Equipment
for the manufacture of nonwovens; the company listings are complemented
by cross references that follow the listings. |
• |
SECTION II lists suppliers of Raw Materials. A cross reference
section detailing the products offered by the companies follows
the listings. |
• |
SECTION III lists producers of nonwoven Roll Goods, along
with details on processes used, fiber types, product sizes and
trade names. A cross reference section organized by technology
is included at the end of the alphabetical list. |
• |
SECTION IV contains a list of Contract Service providers that
deal specifically with the nonwovens industry. Each company’s
specialty and plant locations are provided. A cross reference
section organized by technology is included at the end of the
alphabetical list. |
• |
SECTION V is a listing of the key Consultants to the nonwovens
industry. |
• |
SECTION VI provides information about worldwide Trade Associations
involved with the industry. |
All companies are listed in alphabetical order in the section in
which we determined they best fit. Some may appear in more than
one section because of overlapping capabilities, although most appear
only once. Information contained in each section varies according
to the requirements of that segment of the industry. See the opposite
page for an alphabetical index of corresponding page numbers for
all four cross reference sections.
The information in this International Buyers’ Guide was supplied
by each company in response to a questionnaire; the nonwovens industry
staff compiled the information in its final form. We have attempted
to make this directory as complete as possible. We welcome any corrections
and additions, which will appear in the 2005 Buyers’ Guide
next July. If there are any changes, please contact nonwovens industry,
