INDA, Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, has produced print and web versions of a new directory of pilot lines for nonwoven/engineered materials product development. The directory catalogues 32 pilot facilities in the US, Europe and Asia with brief note on each facility’s process capability, size or throughput limits, and contact information.

“Product development for new business in engineered materials requires sample materials, and samples require small scale pilot production equipment as it is often too costly to utilise commercial equipment for such needs,” said INDA president Dave Rousse. “We expect this new document to be a living, growing listing for technical/research professionals and product developers.” (SV)
