Hubei Gesalife Industry Co., Ltd. and international technology group ANDRITZ have successfully commissioned Gesalife’s first ANDRITZ neXline spunlace production line in a crosslapped configuration. 

 

Li Jun, Chairman of Gesalife, stated: “This new spunlace production line and the cooperation with ANDRITZ marks a major leap forward for Gesalife. We look forward to leveraging this technology to support future innovation and growth.” 

 

The neXline spunlace line has demonstrated strong performance since its commissioning at the end of 2024, operating with high stability and efficiency. It can produce up to 1,000 kilograms per hour of premium spunlace roll goods, with the crosslapper reaching speeds of up to 130 meters per minute – highlighting the advanced nature of ANDRITZ’s technology. 

 

This fully integrated line enables Gesalife to align its spunlace roll goods production with its existing capabilities in wipes and hygiene product converting. The expansion supports the company’s efforts to meet increasing market demand for spunlace materials. 

 

Yanguo Lu, General Manager of ANDRITZ Nonwoven & Textile China, commented: “ANDRITZ remains committed to supporting leading local enterprises such as Gesalife. Through customized services and comprehensive technical support, we aim to contribute to the continued advancement of the nonwovens sector.”
