Since its acquisition by SAMCA Group in 1996, a great investment program has been implemented in order to modernize, extend and diversify BRILEN’s activities. More than 300 M € invested in the last 25 years.

Vertically integrated and sharing synergies with its sister company and internal PET supplier NOVAPET and RPET supplier RENOVAPET, BRILEN is able to control the whole chain, from the raw material, PET polymer, to the POLYESTER HIGH TENACITY YARNS.

State of the art one-step spinning lines, provide us with sufficient productive size and flexibility to attend our customer’s most demanding needs.

Our installations include 16 spinning lines with a production range from 140 to 9900 dtex, 9 twisting lines and other auxiliary equipment for winding and folding, having a highly automated and robtized process.

We are committed to constant investment, so innovation and state-of-the- art technology is at the centre of everything we do.
