OMET, Italy, has opened a new production site for the business unit dedicated to tissue converting machines manufacturing, which in the past year achieved strong growth in sales. The new area, covering more than 1,000 sq. meters, including outdoor and indoor space, is situated in Valmadrera (LC), Italy, and integrates the historical headquarter in Via Caduti a Fossoli in Lecco. It serves as complementary production site where a dozen operators work at tissue converting machines, assembling and testing.

"The new premises have been operative for a couple of months," Marco Calcagni, OMET commercial director, explained, "and it represents the answer to the enormous increase in demand registered in the latest years in Italy and in many foreign markets."

This is further evidence of the regular and constant growth for the Italian company, which at the end of 2016 started a new production site in Molteno (LC) dedicated to the printing machines business unit.

 

OMET Tissue product portfolio includes four main converting lines for the automatic production of disposable napkins, paper towels, non-woven products, and placemats.
