GERMANY – In 2018, the Schattdecor group invested worldwide in the expansion of impregnation facilities and production halls at its plants in Italy, Brazil, Russia, and China.
With the implementation of this investment program, Schattdecor is able to react faster, more independently and quantitatively to the constantly growing demand from the international markets and work on new ideas, products, and infrastructures.
The demand from the Italian and international markets, which has been growing in recent years, is being met with an expansion of machinery and production facilities in Italy for even more capacity. In Latin America and following the acquisition of Coveright do Brasil in 2013, Schattdecor in Brazil decided to use its existing technical infrastructure to serve a demanding market and expand its own product and service portfolio.The optimization of that work was completed in 2018.
Investments were also made in Russia in 2018: in Tyumen, in two new resin impregnation channels, in Tschechov, in a state-of-the-art printing and impregnation center with a new plant. Apart from classic melamine films, today’s product range also includes pigmented melamine films (super white) as well as decors and technical finish layers for flooring applications.
In addition, Schattdecor sees great potential in the Asian region and is increasingly investing in this promising market. In 2014, the construction of an impregnation site started with Schattdecor joint venture, Saintdecor, in China. Today, the plant with its modern system technology is one of the most advanced in China.
