Non-wovens

Nonwovens continue to be engineered for new applications and to replace traditional woven or knit fabrics. These applications demand greater end use performance at increased efficiency, reduced weight and cost. To meet these requirements, topical treatments may be needed to enhance the performance of the polymer or the nonwovens fabric. For instance, ADLs need improved hydrophilicity for multiple insults and wipes need improved water retention.

Each nonwovens process has different requirements and market competition only makes the need for differentiated products more critical. The chart below shows how topical treatment must perform to meet the requirements. Goulston formulates customized lubricant systems for each process to give you an edge.
