After installation of plants for film application the proven AQUAFIL 2-Reactor Polyester Technology is entering the tire cord business area.
The high polymer quality at lowest production and investment costs has convinced the company Slovkord a.s. (Slovak Republic) to order a polyester plant with the AQUAFIL 2-Reactor Technology as turn-key project for their new production expansion.
Slovkord a.s. is belonging to the Kord Group (Czech Republic) which is the biggest producer of cord textile in Europe.
Second Line Successfully Started! After the successful start-up of the AE 2-reactor continuous polycondensation plant for film application in February 2005, Polyplex Ltd. placed the order for the 2nd line for their new plant in Turkey again with AQUAFIL Engineering GmbH. The decision for the AQUAFIL 2-reactor state of the art process was taken after it has been proven in the first project that this process design can produce high quality polymer at lowest cost.
World largest Nylon 6 plant with LDR® technology successfully started and running continuously from first day!
The LDR® plant is the most flexible plant world wide with the possibility of production from bright to full dull chips at the same time and with a wide range of viscosities.
