Exten, the innovative Swiss film and laminates producer for the hygiene, medical and technical market, announces the installation of a new lamination line.

After one year dedicated to help in fighting the Covid-19 pandemic with its laminates for gowns, overalls and elastic components for masks, Exten continue its development plant with this new investment. This new facility is contributing to celebrate the 40th of the Exten foundation.

During Q4/21 the new line will be in operation. The new technologies adopted on the line will allow to provide the market with usual hot melt laminates as well as more sustainable new glue-less laminates thanks to its mono-material composition.

The new line versatility will allow it to provide the market with Exten’s actual range of product portfolio as well as to expand it with innovative novelties.

The recently developed glueless stretch elastic ear, for example, presents improved technical characteristics and softness, resulting in a perfect fit and comfort for babies.

The technical innovations chosen during the project phase, and now adopted, can guarantee increased capacity and high efficiency.

Exten, as done in the past, with this new line will help customers to develop customized solutions that will enable them to find the best option for their specific needs.

Exten will be present at INDEX in Geneva and will be pleased to illustrate to old and new customers the brand-new product line.

Mr. Carlini, Exten’s CEO says: “We are proud to present this state-of-the-art new technology that will provide the performance, comfort and sustainability for the new generation elastics laminates."
