Loparex Invests in Poland

Loparex has opened a new printing and slitting terminal in Warsaw, Poland. This investment is part of Loparex’s strategy to strengthen the company’s operations in Europe and to increase its converting capacity.

The modern converting unit built in Warsaw’s Zeran Park consists of two slitting machines and one 2-colour flexographic printing machine. The unit will mainly convert siliconised ESP release liners manufactured on Loparex’s PM1 located in Lohja, Finland. In Poland, these release liners are printed according to customers’ needs and slit into customer dimensions. Loparex’s Poland sales office is also located in the 1800 m2 terminal premises.

This investment will significantly increase Loparex’s converting capacity and will service mainly manufacturers of hygiene products and envelopes in Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw’s excellent logistic location and good road connections will ensure quick service. With its modern technology Loparex is always able to offer consistent quality and tailor-made product solutions.
