In-house airlaid production machinery and process solutions

Since the 1970s, CAMPEN Machinery A/S has delivered robust nonwovens technology to clients worldwide. Our reliable airlaid machinery and vast process experience make us a trusted partner for companies considering in-house airlaid production. By producing your own airlaid materials, you gain full control of product quality, production costs, and innovation speed. CAMPEN provides pilot testing, recipe development, and engineering support, allowing manufacturers and converters to establish in-house airlaid production with reduced risk and improved efficiency.

Key advantages of moving to internal airlaid manufacturing

The decision to shift from external supply to internal airlaid production reflects a need for flexibility, quality, and independence. Through our comprehensive consultation, you get transparent data, hands-on test results, and process planning to guide your investment.

Achieve consistent product quality by controlling process parameters and adjusting recipes in-house.
Reduce raw material waste and achieve higher yield due to fine-tuned production lines.
Optimise cost reduction by lowering logistics and supply chain dependency.
Shorten development cycles for new absorbent products, hygiene solutions, wipes, and medical materials.
Introduce custom grades or specialty industrial airlaid for niche markets, increasing competitiveness.

Making airlaid in-house increases flexibility, supports internal know-how, and offers technical support for ongoing process improvement. Whether you are entering airlaid manufacturing for hygiene, wipes, medical, or industrial applications, CAMPEN helps you design a production line that aligns with your market demands and regulatory requirements. Our engineering ensures your operation is both reliable and robust.

From project planning to a stable production line

Designing your production solution for real-world requirements

The first step is a thorough review of your market and product specifications. Together, we define parameters like basis weight, absorption, softness, and thickness. We identify suitable raw materials—including fibres and superabsorbents—and suggest a production line configuration that meets your targets and budget.

Line design focuses on easy operation, fast changeovers, and high uptime.
Automation and process monitoring reduce operator workload and minimise errors.
Integrated filtration and dust collection help maintain a safe and clean working environment.

Testing, scale-up, and recipe optimisation

Pilot trials are vital for validating technical feasibility and optimising recipes. In our pilot centre, we test your raw materials and process settings to deliver cost and efficiency data tailored to your business case.

Raw material validation ensures compatibility and performance before investment.
Recipe iteration enhances absorption, strength, and bonding while controlling costs.
Clear process window definition reduces start-up time and operational risk.

After successful trials, our team engineers your plant: from fibre opening and web forming, through thermal or latex bonding, to drying, web handling, and finished roll packaging. Maintenance plans, operator training, and spare part support all contribute to a smooth start-up and ongoing stability. This approach ensures your in-house airlaid production succeeds from day one.

Airlaid machinery: reliability and support for continuous performance

Efficient modules for quality and process optimisation

Our airlaid machinery is designed for real factory environments. It is robust, reliable, and easy to operate, supporting both new and experienced operators.

Efficient defibration keeps fibre fluff uniform and minimises clumping.
Advanced forming heads increase layer control and reduce product variability.
Thermal and latex bonding modules accommodate a broad product range.
Energy-saving dryers reduce energy consumption per kilogram of airlaid produced.
Automated winding and packaging keep rolls consistent and reduce losses.
Safety features comply with CE standards and protect your operators and equipment.

CAMPEN’s decades of experience in nonwovens technology ensure practical upgrades, remote diagnostics, and ongoing technical support. Our modular solutions allow for capacity growth, process efficiency, and adaptation to emerging product requirements. Technical support and fast troubleshooting maximise uptime and keep operating costs under control.

By partnering with CAMPEN, you receive more than equipment. You gain true technical support—from recipe optimisation to ongoing operator training—ensuring every part of your in-house airlaid production runs reliably and meets strict quality demands.

Assessing your business case for internal airlaid production

Let us help you evaluate your production needs, target capacity, and investment horizon. Our transparent cost calculation models, pilot testing services, and phased project planning reduce risk and clarify your path to independent, efficient airlaid manufacturing. Whether your focus is on hygiene, medical, industrial, or wipes sectors, CAMPEN delivers reliable solutions tailored to your situation. Gain clarity and control with a partner who is committed to your process stability and product success.
