    TFP To Increase Capacity 50%

    Investment will meet demand for advanced nonwovens globally

    TFP will increase its capacity by 50% by 2020. This significant financial investment responds to rapidly increasing demand for our advanced nonwovens across all markets and follows an already significant capacity increase in 2015.

    TFP is a successful knowledge-based manufacturing company specialising in developing advanced nonwovens and other related materials for highly technical and challenging applications. Examples range from enabling emerging technologies such as fuel cells, to playing a crucial role in facilitating light-weighting of the latest generation of commercial and defence aircraft. This significant addition to capacity is necessitated by existing and projected growth in these areas, amongst others.

    Martin Thompson, Managing Director of TFP, comments that: "This latest planned expansion is an exciting and necessary step to meet rapidly increasing demand and facilitate the delivery of the company's successful growth strategy. The 50% growth in capacity will be completed by the end of 2020 and represents the latest phase in an accelerated program of both capacity and capability improvements for the company. Examples include the installation of a state-of-the-art particle plating line and upgraded IT infrastructure at TFP's manufacturing facility in the U.S. and doubles  production capacity here in the U.K. in 2015 and increased warehousing to support this. The planned expansion will continue to facilitate the rapid growth we have seen in key markets such as aerospace, defence and fuel cells and will be supported by significant capital investment to develop and house the new capacity."

    TFP is a global company, exporting over 85% of its nonwovens worldwide. It uses wetlaid nonwoven technology which is unique in its design, its roots lying in the papermaking processes used by  parent company James Cropper plc. James Cropper is globally renowned for luxury packaging papers as well as its latest sustainable initiatives, these include Cup Cycling - the upcycling of take-away paper coffee cups into luxury papers & packaging, and Colourform™- an innovative new range of renewable and recyclable moulded fibre packaging.
