Medical:
Used Fabrics: Spunbond (PP), Meltblown, Spunmelt
Mask, Medical and Standard Gown, Cap, Bouffant, Undergarment, Shoe Cover, Pillow Cover, Bedsheet and Hospital Curtains.
Meltblown is made up of ultra-fine microfibers, approximately 1.0-5.0 microns and because of this it is applied extensively to barrier and filtration purposes in masks.
Properties: Chemical-free, Harmless to body and skin, High strength (wet and dry), Lightweight and soft, Hydrophilic and hydrophobic, Air and Water permeable.
Hygiene:
Used Fabrics: Spunmelt, Spunbond (PP), Meltblown, Spunlace
Automotive:
Used Fabrics: Spunlace, Spunbond (PP,PET,Nylon), Needlepunch
Spunlace fabrics are used as components in airbags, seating (seating reinforcement), belt material and also as interior linings and floor coverings due to their light weight and relatively low cost.
PP and PET Spunbond fabrics are also employed due to their strong, lightweight and fire retardance properties which are used in the interiors of vehicles especially for secondary carpet backing, seat covers, foam backing, airbag lining as well as spunbond composites for acoustic insulation.
Needlepunch fabrics are used commonly as carpets which is a change from the traditional woven tufted carpet due to their flexibility, strong and felt-like properties.
Agriculture:
Used Fabrics : Spunbond (PP, PET), Meltblown
Nonwoven fabrics are often applied in agriculture, spunbond fabrics are used as a crop cover, soil cover, fruit cover and capillary matting. These fabrics aids in plant development
by creating more optimal conditions. The covers are permeable to water, air and light and protects crops and fruits from changes in weather, winds and pests. Also preventing the growth of weed and minimizes evaporation which leads to the prevention of soil crusting. Capillary mats absorb water and continuously supply it to the crops which takes up water when is required.
Bedding & Furniture:
Used Fabrics : Spunbond (PP, PET), Spunlace, Needlepunch, Laminated
A range of nonwovens are used in the furniture and bedding applications
Filtration:
Used Fabrics: Meltblown, Spunbond (PP, PET)
Nonwoven products can be used as filtration medium themselves or as components in a filtration product.
Meltblown is made up of ultra-fine microfibers, approximately 1.0-5.0 microns and because of this it is applied extensively to filtration purposes.
