Raflatac's redesigned Spanish factory begins operation

5/27/2003

After nearly a year of planning and preparation, Raflatac Iberica S.A. is fully operational.

Located in Polinya, Spain, just outside of Barcelona, the factory is central for the transportation of Raflatac material throughout the world. 

The redesigned factory produces all sheet, A4 and special products for the European market.  Raflatac Iberica S.A. also acts as a distribution center for the Iberian Peninsula.

The updated factory houses coaters, two new finishing centers both for sheet and reel products with an automated warehouse and two new automated packing lines. An updated laboratory and printing-test services also provide better quality control and product development, as well as a modern testing facility for Raflatac products.
