According to a report published by Inside Indiana business, Vita Nonwovens this week will celebrated the expansion of its Fort Wayne, IN facility with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The 150,000-square-foot expansion will allow the company to house a new production line and add 22 employees.
The site, operational since 2003, was formerly 108,000 square feet and held the company’s thermal bonding, needling, lamination and die-cut technology assets. The $18 million expansion will add space to the facility to help meet Vita Nonwovens growing demand.
The Indiana site is one of three U.S. sites owned by Vita Nonwovens, which is now a part of Germany's TWE Group. The company's other sites are located in Waco, TX and High Point, NC. Key markets include automotives and home goods.
