SNC Kherib et Cie., a maker of viscose and cotton cleaning clothes and polyester wadding for mattress and pillows, is adding a complete Andritz spunlace line at its plant located in Bejaia City, Algeria. The start-up is scheduled for the end of quarter of 2026.

The line, which is reportedly the first of its kind in Africa, will process both viscose and polyester fibers, enabling SNC Kherib to produce high-quality spunlace roll goods for the wet wipes markets to meet the growing needs of African consumers. This project marks a significant step in the development of the spunlace industry in Africa and opens the door to new opportunities for local converters.

The project is a family investment, with each member of the Kherib family actively involved. As a pioneer in the African market, SNC Kherib is leading the way in introducing advanced spunlace technology to the region.

Farid Kherib, founder of SNC Kherib, states: “We are proud to collaborate with a global leader like Andritz. This partnership highlights our commitment and passion for developing innovative solutions tailored to the specific needs of the African market using state-of-the-art equipment.”
