Glass fibre-reinforced plastics specialist, Fiberline Building Solutions (Fredericia / Denmark; www.fiberline.com) plans to set up a new production facility in Lozienica, just a few kilometres to the northeast of the Polish port of Szczecin. In December 2021, CEO Torben Rønlev told industry association Plastindustrien (Copenhagen / Denmark; www.plast.dk) that 18 people were already employed at the site, and that the workforce would grow to 75 during the course of 2022.
Fiberline Building Solutions is still a fairly young company. At the beginning of last year, it was founded as a subsidiary unit of Fiberline Composites (Middelfart / Denmark; www.fiberlinecomposites.com), after an external, unnamed investor from the wind energy sector bought into the company and supplied fresh capital. Since then, the focus of Fiberline Building Solutions has been on the development and production of GRP profiles as an alternative to steel solutions for the building industry and the industrial sector – for example, for bridges, cooling towers, railway staircases, rail platforms and walkways. With plants in Denmark and China, Fiberline Composites is meanwhile focusing on the production of CRP and GRP components for wind energy production.
