OMET Installs 750th Tissue Converting Machine in the World

OMET, Italy, reports that its 750th installation of a tissue converting machine comes in a period of strong growth for the Group, which has steadily increased its turnover by a steady 10% each year since 2009 and is expecting to total EUR 90 million for recently completed 2015.

The installed base of OMET tissue converting machines spreads over the five global continents, evidence of the company’s position as a leading provider of modular machines for the production of napkins, towels, and place mats, OMET notes.

During more than 50 years in the tissue industry, OMET emphasizes that it has reached ambitious goals, supported by people and values that still represent the "main motor of the company." Achieving the 750 installations coincides, in fact, with the presentation of the FV.4 line (vacuum folding machine for napkins with four lanes), the renewed AS Line for the production of towels, digitalization of all of the company’s products to ease the process flow and increase overall safety, and the introduction of new modular units, among which is Chameleon, the innovative modular print head units for the digital direct printing of variable data on napkins.
