Albis SpA, the founding company of Albis Group, is located near Biella in Northern Italy. Biella has been known as the centre of textile industry. Drawing from this deep-rooted experience, the step into the world of nonwovens was not unexpected. What is unexpected is that Albis chooses to go down an unconventional route of making and marketing nonwovens; we are one of only 4 nonwovens producers left in the world who make their own fibers. And of these 4, we are the only one engaged in long-spinning of fibers, thereby providing a wide range of possible properties. We are the only company to date to have commercialised the Neumag spunbonded technology in the area of low basis weight, low denier nonwovens for the hygiene market.
