Belgian Fibers

BELGIAN FIBERS SA was established in 1984 as an independent company to produce Polyolefin as well as Polypropylene staple fibres. The initial capacity of 4.000 ton/year capacity was based on a Fare-extrusion line. Applications were spinning and nonwoven carpeting. To meet the demands of our customers BELGIAN FIBERS offered a range of deniers, cutlenghts and colours. Currently BELGIAN FIBERS has a library of over 2000 different colours and shades. To achieve the best colour match possible BELGIAN FIBERS has pre-compounding for uni-coloured master batches and blending rooms. Belgian Fibers can load up to 24 tons in a high cube 40’ container.

The capacity was raised to 15.000 annual tons in 2002 due to the rising demand in automotive applications. A new warehouse was added and a covered area of 11.000 m² was made at our disposition to stock the different qualities in an orderly way. Numbers of on-line control systems were added to the production lines to manage the different demand of our customers.

Automatic baling systems give more possibility to our collaborators to use their time in quality control. The bales are circled with Polyester straps under the plastic wrap. Opening a bale is now without risk of injuries.
