Industrial Non-Woven Materials

Industrial Non-Woven Materials

Our product portfolio is focused on industrial non-woven materials used in cleaning, technical wiping, and demanding industrial applications.

We work with two distinct non-woven categories — Spunlace and Needle Punched — each selected and supplied based on application requirements, performance expectations, and disciplined execution.

SPUNLACE NON-WOVENS

Spunlace non-wovens are hydro-entangled fabrics, where fibers are bonded using high-pressure water jets. This process produces materials that are flexible, absorbent, and low-lint, making them suitable for surface-contact and industrial cleaning applications.

Polypropylene (PP) Spunlace

Primary industrial cleaning substrate

Polypropylene (PP) Spunlace microstructure

PP spunlace is widely used in industrial cleaning environments, particularly where strength, absorbency, and lint control are critical.

Core Applications

  • Industrial cleaning and maintenance wipes
  • Facility and workshop cleaning
  • Surface preparation and technical wiping
  • Situations where durability and chemical resistance outweigh absorbency

Why Polypropylene Spunlace

  • Good chemical resistance
  • Consistent performance across cleaning cycles
  • Suitable for demanding industrial environments

Material selection is always aligned to buyer-defined specifications and intended use.

Polyester (PET) Spunlace

Durability-oriented spunlace option

Polyester (PET) Spunlace microstructure

PET spunlace is evaluated case-by-case, based on application needs. PET spunlace may also be blended with viscose where absorbency and mechanical durability are both required. Recycled polyester (rPET) fiber options may be evaluated where sustainability considerations are part of the application requirements, subject to performance validation and supply consistency.

Core Applications

  • Technical and precision cleaning wipes
  • Automotive and aerospace surface wiping
  • Electronics and equipment maintenance
  • Reusable and long-life industrial wipes
  • Applications requiring low stretch and high abrasion resistance

Why Polyester (PET) Spunlace

  • Excellent tensile strength and durability
  • High abrasion and tear resistance
  • Low lint generation for critical cleaning tasks
  • Good resistance to solvents and repeated use
  • Maintains structure and performance under mechanical stress

Materials are supplied based on application-specific construction and performance requirements.

Other Spunlace Variants (Application-Specific)

Other Spunlace Variants microstructure

Depending on performance requirements, additional spunlace constructions may be evaluated in collaboration with manufacturing partners.

Evaluation Criteria

Additional constructions are considered based on:

  • Technical feasibility
  • Performance expectations
  • Consistency and repeatability

Application-Specific Solutions

  • Tailored to performance requirements
  • Aligned with manufacturing capability
  • Consistency and repeatability across runs

Materials are supplied based on application-specific construction and performance requirements.

NEEDLE PUNCHED

Needle-punched non-wovens are mechanically bonded fabrics, where fibers are interlocked using barbed needles. This produces materials that are thicker, stronger, and more structurally robust than spunlace.

Needle Punched Non-Wovens — Technical & Heavy-Duty Applications

Needle Punched Non-Wovens microstructure

Needle-punched materials are commonly used where durability and thickness are prioritized over softness. They are supplied based on application-specific construction and performance requirements.

Where Needle Punched Fits

  • Durability and thickness are prioritized
  • Abrasion resistance is required
  • Structural integrity matters more than softness

Typical Industrial Uses

  • Heavy-duty cleaning and utility applications
  • Technical and protective industrial uses
  • Abrasive or structural wiping applications

Materials are supplied based on application-specific construction and performance requirements.
