About
Description
Glatfelter is a leading global supplier of engineered materials, headquartered in York, Pennsylvania, United States. The company was founded in 1864 by Philip H. Glatfelter as a paper manufacturer.
Over time, Glatfelter expanded its operations and diversified its product offerings, becoming a renowned specialty materials manufacturer. Glatfelter operates in three business segments: Composite Fibers, Advanced Airlaid Materials, and Specialty Papers. The Composite Fibers segment produces high-quality nonwoven materials used in various applications such as hygiene products, wipes, filtration, and building materials.
The Advanced Airlaid Materials segment offers absorbent materials for the feminine hygiene, adult incontinence, and food packaging industries. The Specialty Papers segment produces engineered papers for niche markets including tea and coffee filters, book publishing, and decorative laminates. With a global presence, Glatfelter has manufacturing facilities in the United States, Canada, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and the Philippines.
The company has a strong commitment to sustainability and follows environmentally friendly practices in its operations. Glatfelter has made several strategic acquisitions and partnerships to strengthen its market position and expand its product offerings. Notable acquisitions include Concert Industries, Spezialpapierfabrik Oberschmitten, and Dresden Papier.
Furthermore, Glatfelter has formed partnerships with companies like Suzano Papel e Celulose and Dresden Papier. In terms of market position, Glatfelter is recognized as a global leader in specialty materials. It faces competition from other multinational companies in the industry but has successfully carved out its niche with its high-quality and innovative products.
One of Glatfelter's significant achievements was the acquisition of Georgia-Pacific's European nonwovens business in 2017, which considerably expanded its presence in the European market. This acquisition further reinforced its position as a leading global supplier of engineered materials. As of the latest information available, Glatfelter continues to be a dynamic player in the specialty materials industry.
The company remains committed to innovation, sustainability, and strategic growth initiatives to meet the evolving needs of its customers
