Nonwoven Materials for Medicine, Hygiene and PPE
Non-Woven Thermobonded Fabric for Medicine and Protective Clothing
This nonwoven material is made on technology REICOFIL®4. At first polypropylene threads are formed by extrusion, then aerodynamic formation of canvas is made and then thermal fastening on calender is made.
Applications for nonwoven thermobonded fabric
This nonwoven thermobonded material is widely used in light manufacturing for sewing medical and special protective clothing, various items of sanitary purposes.
Non-Woven Hydrobonded Fabric Advantages
- easy sterilization at 100-130°C;
- the ability to do laundry with antistatic added;
- easy ironing at low temperatures;
- non-toxic;
- does not cause allergic reactions;
- dustproofing properties;
- acid resistance (except particularly concentrated nitric, chlorosulfate and other acids);
- lightweight
- antistatic, hydrophobic, hydrophilic, fire extinguishing are possible;
- possibility of laminating with polypropylene;
- wide range of colours;
- cost effectiveness in manufacturing.
