UPM Raflatac opens slitting facility in Buenos Aires

UPM Raflatac has opened a new slitting and distribution terminal in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The terminal began operations in early March and will supply both paper and film labelstocks to customers in Argentina.

The company says the new terminal demonstrates its commitment to improving its service capabilities and product offering to meet growing demand in South America.

‘The opening of our new terminal in Argentina is an important strategic step for UPM Raflatac. We are excited to offer our high-quality labelstocks and to be able to significantly improve our service capabilities to the market in Argentina,’ said Jouko Lähepelto, senior vice president, Americas and Asia Pacific.

The Argentina terminal complements UPM Raflatac’s service network in South America, comprised of a labelstock factory in Rio de Janeiro and a slitting and distribution terminal in Jaguariúna, Brazil.
