Non Woven Fabric For Wet Wipes
Non-woven fabric is widely used in wet wipes due to its softness, durability, and absorbency. These fabrics are made from fibers bonded together rather than woven, creating a flexible, durable, and often biodegradable material. Here’s an overview of key points about non-woven fabric used in wet wipes:
Material Composition
Polypropylene or Polyester: Common materials used for their strength and durability.
Continuous Filament Fibers: These fibers are extruded and laid down in a random web pattern.
Common Applications
Baby Wipes: Require a soft, gentle fabric; spunlace with viscose or cotton is common.
Household Cleaning Wipes: May use tougher non-wovens (e.g., with more polyester) to handle scrubbing.
Medical/Antibacterial Wipes: Usually require non-wovens that are strong, lint-free, and compatible with disinfectant solutions.
Cosmetic Wipes: Soft, gentle, and highly absorbent materials are ideal for makeup removal and facial wipes.
Industrial Cleaning: Suitable for cleaning machines, tools and equipment in industrial environments.
Personal Care Wipes: Ideal for makeup remover wipes and intimate wipes
