In the facility the company will expand its operations and will focus on the production of the Ethylene Vinyl Acetate plastic films. The EVA plastic film is used mainly in the production process of photovoltaic (PV) panels which are used in the production of solar panels which have been widely used in the last few years. Some 10% of the output is planed to be distributed among producers of laminated glass.
The production line which will be installed in the new facility in Żarów will be the third line of the type in the Brigestone Corporation Group's global facility structure. Due to the fact that it will be equipped with the latest solutions designed by the Group's R&D centre, the Poland-based facility stands a good chance of becoming the leading provider of solar panels in Europe. (Wałbrzych SEZ)
