The new slitting center will serve all customers in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Northern France.
April 10, 2025 - The Fedrigoni Group said that it will open a new slitting center in Germany in the Segro Park Frechen, near Cologne, in the fourth quarter of 2025.
The new slitting center will serve all customers in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Northern France.
With 6,400 square meters and three 2-meter-wide new generation slitting equipment, the distribution center is designed to produce 90 million square meters per year of high-quality films and premium paper self-adhesive materials for various sectors, including luxury packaging, food & beverage, personal care and large-scale retail, with the potential for future growth both in production capacity and in additional market segments served.
"The opening of the slitting center in Germany aims to support our customers in responding to the increasingly demanding self-adhesive market, particularly in terms of service and short lead times over the past few years," said Fernando Girón, Commercial Director EMEA Roll & Sheet Label at Fedrigoni Self-Adhesives. "By positioning ourselves closer to our customers, we are enhancing both our lead times and overall service in this region, which remain top priorities for us."
Fedrigoni noted that two factors drove the choice of this location — its strategic geographic positioning and its focus on sustainability.
"Some of the rubble from the redevelopment of the site became recycled material for the new buildings, and heat pumps have also been installed, powered by electricity generated by photovoltaic systems on the roofs of the warehouses," the company added.
Founded in 1888 in Verona, Italy, Fedrigoni is a manufacturer of labels and self-adhesive materials, specialty papers for packaging and creative communication, and RFID solutions.
