The company produces a wide range of technical nonwovens for building and construction, filtration, energy storage and composites at 11 facilities in Germany, the US and China.
“Luxury vinyl tiles are a modern flooring material that’s very popular. We have developed a couple of tailor-made glass fibre nonwovens for this application. Our products offer high dimensional stability in different thermal conditions and ensure a very good paste penetration thanks to their open structure,” said Martin Kleinebrecht, portfolio management and marketing leader at Johns Manville.Johns Manville is displaying a variety of products such as glass fibre nonwovens for luxury vinyl tiles and composites at the ongoing Techtextil show in Frankfurt, Germany.
