Two extrusion lines for the production of waterproofing membranes in PVC and TPO have been recently supplied by Amut to Jiangsu Canlon.

 

“We are becoming the largest supplier of waterproofing materials around China reaching a productivity capacity of 10 million sqm per year of waterproofing membranes in polymer and 20 million sqm per year of waterproofing membrane in bitumen. With these two new extrusion lines supplied by Amut Group as turnkey project, we will rise our production up to 25 million sqm per year of waterproofing membrane in polymer”, stated Qian Lindi, Board Chairman of Jiangsu Canlon Building Materials. Jiangsu Canlon company was recently awarded with the China Building Materials Academy of Karen Waterproof Technology R&D Center.

 

“All of our products have to be thoroughly tried and tested and comply with the international standards concerning building and roofing applications. For this reason, we looked for a European supplier with solid reputation and important references. Amut Group was the only company capable to guarantee as turnkey project the performances of the extrusion lines and the quality of the final products which is first priority for us. We met Andrea Peretto, Sales Manager of Amut in charge of Southern Asian countries, more than 8 years ago. The mutual dedication of Amut technical team in Italy and in China led us to have the best solution to achieve our targets considering also the fully automatic downstream that will permit to produce final packed and palletized customized reels”, continued Qian Lindi.
