Nonwovens - the allrounder in modern industry
Nonwovens are innovative materials that play an important role in many industries thanks to their versatility and performance. As opposed to woven or knitted fabrics, nonwovens are web structures bonded together by entangling fibers by means of mechanical, thermal or chemical processes. Their unique structures provide them with characteristics such as light weight, breathability and durability.
A High-tech production: how nonwovens are made
The production of nonwovens is a multi-stage operation. First, the fibers - often Polyester, Polypropylene or natural fibers, are prepared according to specific compositions before they undergo the processes of carding and bonding. The expertise in production together with the flexibility deriving from Sandler Group's multitude of production technologies make nonwovens by Sandler the ideal solution for specific requirements.
Nonwovens in everyday life - innovative and indispensable
Given their versatility, nonwovens increasingly replace traditional materials and contribute to sustainability and resource management. Nonwovens may be used in
- Mobility: comfort and functionality are being enhanced by padding nonwovens, acoustical materials, liners and molded parts.
- Hygiene products: diapers, wet wipes, or even feminnine care products - nonwovens provide for hygienic solutions.
- Technical applications: nonwovens serve as backing materials in construction or as insulating material in manufacturing.
- Filtration: high performance filters made from nonwovens purify air and liquids effectively and efficiently.
- Household products: cleaning cloths (alt. dust cloths oder wipes) dust filters (alt. vacuum cleaner bags) and many more.
Nonwoven - the future of material development
Manufacturers like Sandler Group are increasingly developing environmentally friendly alternatives such as recycable or degradable nonwovens. The continuing development of technologies makes it possible to further optimize the properties of the materials and to enter new fields of application. This makes nonwovens one of the most promising group of materials of the future.
Nonwovens - unlimited possibilities
Nonwovens are the Swiss army knife of modern industry. Their versatility, their sustainability and their functionality render them a key technology in numerous Industries. With innovative solutions and high-quality products, Sandler Group sets the standards with the allrounder nonwoven fabrics.
