Engineered nonwoven substrates · Roll goods for converters and manufacturers

Technology · 01
Staple fiber is carded into a web and bonded with heat. Basis weight, fiber blend, and the thermal bond set the hand, the strength, and how the sheet converts.

Process
Step 01
Staple fiber is opened and blended to the recipe.
Step 02
Carding lays the fiber into a uniform web at the target weight.
Step 03
Heat bonds the web. Pattern, temperature, and pressure are part of the specification.
Step 04
A surface finish is applied when specified, then the web is slit and wound.
Attributes
Every Syntex web starts here. There is no second forming line.
The thermal bond sets loft, stiffness, and tensile at a given basis weight.
The same roll can leave as a web, or continue into lamination.
Available finishes
Fluid leaves the surface and enters the core. Topsheets and acquisition layers.
Fluid stays out. Cuffs and covers that have to shed liquid.
Light webs run cleanly on a high-speed unwind instead of clinging to the line.
A surface finish that changes hand without changing the thermal bond.
