Cosmo commissions ninth line and two Atlas slitters

20 December 2013


India's Cosmo Films recently inaugurated its ninth BOPP film production line on a new greenfield site in Shendra, India, including two slitter rewinders from Atlas Converting Equipment.

The new, high speed film line is 8.7m wide and is expected to produce up to 45,000 tonnes of BOPP film per year. It will be processing thinner gauge films particularly used for lamination in flexible packaging applications.

The Atlas machines are an 8.7m wide CW984AP primary film slitter at the end of the film line and a 2.8m wide CW800 secondary film slitter for processing narrower widths of BOPP film. Both machines will be running at speeds of up to 1,000m/min.

Cosmo is one of the world's largest producers of BOPP and thermal laminating films, with operations in India, South Korea and the USA. In 2013/14, the company will produce 150,000 tonnes of BOPP film, 40,000 tonnes of thermal film, 20,000 tonnes of coated film and 8,000 tonnes of metallised film for customers in more than 100 countries.
