Arla Plast is now investing in a new extrusion line in Kadan, Czech Republic

Leif Nilsson, Managing Director of Arla Plast AB as one of Europe's leading suppliers of extruded sheets said: “This line will further strengthen our position in the European market. The line will not only add capacity for the multiwall sheets but also allow us to grow with our customers and further enhance our principles of speed, flexibility, service and quality for our customers. We look forward to develop innovative products with high quality on these investments and to serve our valued customers”.

Leif Nilsson continues: “Adding extrusion capacity will mean recruitment of personnel too, in Czech Republic we have recruited a product manager and a process technician too to strengthen our team. The line will come on stream in early part of 2008”.

Arla Plast AB was founded in 1969 and focuses on extrusion of solid plastics sheets. Today the main products are Polycarbonate, Polyesters and ABS. The company is privately owned and is today one of Europe's leading suppliers of extruded thermoplastic sheet, exporting 80 % of its production.
