Turkuvaz has upgraded its Sakarya, Turkey baby diaper plant, through the integration of diversion channel technology into its production lines. This upgrade enables Turkuvaz to produce game-changing diapers with enhanced core absorption and maximum comfort for babies. The upgrade was provided by Andritz

In addition to improved wearability and a better fit for babies, the incorporation of channel technology ensures superior performance in terms of rewet and acquisition time. It also enables increased distribution throughout the core, reducing the so-called sagging effect. Furthermore, raw material costs are lowered compared to conventional diaper cores.

“This project was crucial for the diversification of our product offering, and having a responsive and customized solutions provider was essential for our business,” says Sedat Mala, general manager of Turkuvaz. “We are confident that this collaboration will significantly strengthen our market position and drive future growth.”

Turkuvaz already operates nine converting lines and one spunlace line, all featuring Andritz technology.
