Ahlstrom, a provider of masking and packaging tape base papers, is exploring making investments in tape base paper saturation and release coating capabilities.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company has initiated a feasibility study to identify the most suitable approach to develop these capabilities, with a decision expected shortly after its completion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The potential investment comes in response to the increasing customer demand for the solutions, particularly in the Americas.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The study aims to potentially enhance Ahlstrom\u2019s tape product offering by including speciality base papers such as saturated and coated creped base papers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

These papers are used in various end applications, including packaging tapes and the automotive and aerospace industries, among others. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s existing fibre-based masking tape backings are known for their durability and longevity.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
