The Roll Covers segment manufactures, refurbishes, and replaces roll covers, including suction rolls, lump breaker rolls, coater rolls, sizing rolls, calendar rolls, and conveying rolls used in paper-making machines. This segment also provides refurbishment services for previously installed roll covers; and mechanical maintenance and repair services for the internal mechanisms of rolls. The company was formerly known as Xerium Technologies, Inc. and changed its name to ANDRITZ Fabrics and Rolls Inc. in May 2019. ANDRITZ Fabrics and Rolls Inc. was founded in 1976 and is headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina. As of October 17, 2018, ANDRITZ Fabrics and Rolls Inc. operates as a subsidiary of Andritz AG.
