Summary

Product Overview
Nonwoven is a novel, innovative, and engineered fabric manufactured from fibers by using a melt-blown spinning process. Melt blown is a traditional fabrication procedure that includes the extrusion of thermoplastic fiber-forming polymers via small nozzles surrounded by high-speed blowing gas. Melt-blown nonwovens are small diameter fibers which provide exceptional filtration properties, absorption capacity, and thermal insulation. Melt-blown nonwovens are utilized to make products which are used in automotive, agricultural, personal hygiene, medical products, construction, roofing, and carpeting.
