Shandong Huazhe Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. has placed an order with international technology group ANDRITZ for a high-speed needlepunch line to produce advanced filtration materials. The line will be installed at the company’s headquarters in Jinan, Shandong Province, China.

Delivery is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027.

This project represents an important milestone for ANDRITZ in advanced filtration applications. It will feature the first commercial application of the A-Type needleloom, a new addition to ANDRITZ’s global needleloom portfolio, combining cost-efficient operation, production flexibility, and high product quality.

The line will be the first PTFE filtration material production line supplied by ANDRITZ.

Mr. Han Fuhe, Chief Executive Officer of Shandong Huazhe, states: “The production of advanced filtration materials requires reliable equipment and gentle fibre processing. Based on our positive experience with ANDRITZ, we are confident that the new needlepunch line will provide the quality, efficiency, and process stability we need for our future growth.”
