Goldenrod Increases Carbon Fiber Production

Expansion includes 760-inch, 47,000-pound CNC machine for mill duty winding mandrels

Goldenrod Corporation, a maker of web handling components for paper, film, foil and nonwoven converting, has completed its second expansion phase to increase carbon fiber production, enlarge its repair department and enhance manufacturing capabilities and efficiency.

The addition, the company’s second in the last six years, brings Goldenrod’s total facility to almost 50,000 square feet. At the center of the additional space is a 360-inch, 47,000-pound CNC machine for mill duty winding mandrels.

“The addition was necessary to meet our customers’ needs,” says Goldenrod CFO Stephen Pretto. “Increased efficiency means increased production and faster turnaround. We also have added a roll handling section used to demo new machines and products. My goal is to incrementally improve products and services to our customer base, and this addition will do just that.”
