As the UK’s largest extruder of blown polyethylene films, the total investment boosts existing site capacity by over 25% to meet growing market requirements for recyclable, recycled performance films. Supported by the construction of a fourth new 825SQM film hall, the installation of four new co-extrusion lines, acquired from the former Total Polyfilms business, will position Coveris as a world leader in stretch films, alongside its Kufstein facility in Austria.
With the Winsford facility having developed many leading brands and best in class solutions to date, including the latest 11-micron stretch film, thinnest 5-micron pre-stretch and hybrid cast replacement BLAST™ film, the business’ technical development capability is to be even further enhanced with the installation of next generation assets and capabilities.
