Research & development
Custom-made articles, which are developed in close collaboration with customers, constitute 70% of our product range. We have a whole range of bonding methods, such as spraying, foaming, needle-punching or thermobonding, at our disposal. The last two mentioned are particularly to be found in the food and hygiene industry as it is not necessary to use binding agents. Furthermore, our products feature a number of different properties: they can be made to be antibacterial, antifungal, water-repellent, hydrophilic, lipophilic and can conduct electricity. We can offer nonwovens in a longitudinal, crosslaid or aerodynamic version. Masses per unit area of 40-900 g/m2 and thicknesses of 2-50 mm are possible.
Tests and certificates
Our clothing and lingerie nonwovens are certified in accordance with OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100. As we only use certified fibres, articles from other product groups can also be certified if so required. All raw materials and products are REACH-compliant. Our products are subjected to constant quality checks. And our internal test procedures are based on various ISO standards.
