JELGAVA – PET Baltija, a leading European PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) recycler, has acquired Czech textile producer Tesil Fibres in a bid to vertically integrate the two’s operations and increase the availability of recycled materials.

Tesil Fibres, a spin-off of the Planá-based Silon Group, is said to boast annual production capacities of 33,000 tonnes and last year recorded sales of €27 million (US$27m).

Salvis Lapiņš, chairman of the board at PET Baltija, commented: “By ensuring the supply of best-in-class recycled PET materials, we will look to significantly contribute to the growth of the Tesil Fibres business and add greater product differentiation to it.
