Summary:The present invention relates to a apparatus for compacting (10) a web (N) of flexible fiber-based or filament-based material. The apparatus (10) includes at least one pair of superimposed plates (11), whose facing surfaces (11a, 11b) create therebetween at least one compaction space (12). The apparatus is fed with the continuous web (N), that is moved through said at least one space (12), so as to be subjected to compaction by the closure of the plates, actuated by thrust means (25). Moreover, the invention relates to a method for compacting webs (N) of flexible fiber-based or filament-based materials.
