    Ahlstrom-Munksjö Invests in Filtration

    €28 million plan will impact sites in Italy, Belgium and Sweden

    06.18.18

    Ahlstrom-Munksjö continues to grow its filtration business as customer demand increases globally. In the Filtration and Performance business area, the company will invest about €28 million to expand manufacturing capacity as well as product capabilities. The project will start in 2018 and is expected to be completed during the first half of 2020. 

    Fulvio Capussotti, Executive Vice President of Business Area Filtration and Performance, states: “This investment will enable us to create additional capacity in Turin, Italy, and will allow us to support growing demand for high-end filtration materials. Turin is already Ahlstrom-Munksjö’s largest plant globally and this investment will further consolidate our position as one of the leading global platforms for high-performance filtration material development and production."

    The investment also includes rebuilding and modification of our existing plants in Malmedy, Belgium and in Ställdalen, Sweden. The company sees an opportunity to use the remaining capacity of these two plants to develop unique filtration solutions for industrial applications, without affecting its ability to serve and support  existing customers at these plants.

    The investment supports Ahlstrom-Munksjö’s strategic ambition to maintain a leading position in selected niches of the global fiber-based solutions market that offer positive growth outlook and are supported by sustainable market drivers. The company has responded to growing customer demand by successively expanding its filtration manufacturing capabilities globally through several new and expansionary investments in the past few years. Today, Ahlstrom-Munksjö is one of the global leaders in filtration materials for the transportation and industrial sectors.

    The Filtration and Performance business area develops and produces filtration materials for transportation as well as industrial applications. It also produces glass fiber for flooring products and wind turbine blades and makes nonwoven materials for automotive, construction, textile and hygiene applications and wallcover materials.
