Bursa-based Göliplik, one of Türkiye’s leading yarn manufacturers, had ordered a complete Wetlace™ line from ANDRITZ in 2025 to produce nonwoven fabrics for sustainable and flushable wipes, and previously announced that start-up was scheduled for the first half of 2027. According to the latest announcement, erection and commissioning of the neXline wetlace™ line are planned to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026.
As part of the project, Göliplik’s operating team will be welcomed to ANDRITZ’s dedicated Nonwovens location in France for training to support knowledge transfer and preparation for commissioning. Additional training will also be provided on site to ensure a smooth transition into operation.
“Strong collaboration built on trust and shared sustainability goals”
Erdoğan Seremet, owner and president of Göliplik, said with the installation of the ANDRITZ line, they are taking a decisive step into the nonwovens market: “Our strong collaboration – built on trust and shared sustainability goals – demonstrates how a technology partnership can become a growth catalyst. As the project advances toward start-up, our teams are laying the foundation for a new chapter in sustainable wipes production in Türkiye.”
Tobias Schäfer, Vice President ANDRITZ Nonwoven & Textile commented: “Throughout the project, we have worked closely together, with a strong focus on structured project management, transparent communication, and coordinated engineering activities. This joint approach has enabled steady progress across all project phases to date.”
