New partnership to serve Mexico’s textile industry

Baldwin Technology Company has forged a new partnership with Blutec SA de CV. This collaboration now represents Baldwin’s full range of innovative spray systems and corona/plasma treaters for wovens, knits and nonwovens in Mexico.

Rick Stanford, Baldwin’s vice president of global business development for textiles, says: “We are pleased to partner with Blutec in Mexico. We find that this organisation has an excellent reputation in the Mexican textile industry, with a portfolio of machinery principals that provides excellent synergy for Baldwin and our product lines. We’re extremely excited to be onboard.”

Following on from this, Daniele Uslenghi, Blutec’s general manager, says: “The textile industry in Mexico is looking for solutions to help reduce manufacturing costs. Baldwin’s precision spray technology provides savings in energy, water and chemistry.”

The company’s precision spray systems for finishing and remoistening use non-contact spray technology. This provides optimal controlled coverage of the exact amount of liquids needed to achieve the specific characteristics of the fabric, the company says. The technology saves customers time, money and valuable resources, Baldwin adds. As only the required amounts of water and chemicals are applied, water consumption can be reduced by up to 50%, contributing to considerably improved productivity in the finishing process.

In addition, these solutions can process a wide range of low-viscosity water-based chemicals—such as softeners, antimicrobial agents, durable water repellents, flame retardants and more—for woven fabrics, knitted textiles and nonwovens, the company continues.
