Pelsan Tekstil, founded in 2007, is a manufacturer of breathable film technologies for the hygiene and medical sectors. It also develops products for the construction industry, where they are used as roofing membranes. It has a number of sister companies, making products such as nonwovens, insulation mats and artificial leather.
Product lines:
The company produces breathable films for three main end markets: hygiene, medical and insulation. These are all sold under its Breatech brand. In hygiene, its textile backsheet is made by laminating breathable film onto nonwovens. This is supplied to diaper producers, and gives a soft, cottony texture thanks to its textile surface, says the company. Similar products are supplied to the medical industry. In insulation, Breatech products are supplied as waterproof membranes for roofing, siding, shingle and curtain wall systems. The breathable, laminated products allow air circulation and remove water vapour and moisture to the outside. All products can be printed on one side or both.
Factory locations:
The company’s main production is in Turkey, though it also has operations in Switzerland and Russia. Recently, it announced a new 80,000 sq ft plant in the US. The company is investing US$82 million to build a plant in Goldsboro, North Carolina, that is expected to create more than 200 jobs when it opens in 2027.
