Developed by German manufacturer Brückner Maschinenbau, the line is also equipped with a TDO heat recovery solution and a newly designed sliding system to reduce the use of lubrication.

SRF had already partnered with Brückner to open a BOPP film production line at their subsidiary in Durban, South Africa.
