Industry newcomer to add meltblown, bico line to serve medical, hygiene markets
July 18, 2022

Sinaatec Spa will add two Reifenhäuser Reicofil nonwovens lines to a new nonwovens operation in Algiers, Algeria. The company was established in 2017 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Madar Holding Group and this is its first investment in nonwovens lines. Reicofil has supplied the company with a 3.2 meter-wide single-beam meltblown line and an 3.2 meter-wide composite bico line, which will target the medical and hygiene sectors.
Mohamed Lamine Bouchelouche, president and CEO at Sinaatec, says: “The demand for nonwovens remains high. We see further growth potential in the North and Central African markets.” The meltblown line is scheduled to be commissioned as early as September, while the start up of the composite line is planned for fall 2023. Sinaatec’s local sites and infrastructure provide space for another plant, so further expansion is possible.
Dr. Boerge Wessling, Managing Director at Reifenhäuser Reicofil, adds: “We are very pleased to install our state-of-the-art production lines in Sinaatec’s advanced production facility for high quality nonwovens. Despite an initially digital-only business initiation due to the pandemic, we already have a very cooperative relationship and look forward to further collaboration.” The first face-to-face meeting between Sinaatec and Reifenhäuser Reicofil after an initially digital-only business initiation due to the pandemic.
