IKEA’s Swedwood laminates
wood furniture on Burkle lines
The IKEA Group’s Swedwood Co. purchased two Burkle
foil-laminating lines to produce its wood furniture with
foil surfaces.
The foil-laminating lines will be installed in Swedwood’s
factories in Poland in fall 2011, including one at the compa-
ny’s largest Polish factory in Zbaszynek for producing the
Expedit furniture line. Both lines are designed for modern
glue systems such as urea-formaldehyde or hotmelt, and
are suitable for lamination of different kind of foils.
