“Clean air and water are critical to our communities and environment,” said president and CEO Julie Schertell. “Meltblown technology effectively removes harmful particles from the air we breathe and the water we drink. This new meltblown line intensifies our innovation efforts and will allow us to continue to grow with our customers.”

The new meltblown line is expected to be online in mid-2024.
