As a hydrophilic core, this soft, fine fiber nonwoven material with super-wicking performance provides an ideal solution for nursing pads and other personal hygiene and pet care products.
The surface remains dry as moisture is transferred through the composite material (or pad), away from the surface, for superior comfort and confidence during use.
Tensile strength and elongation properties are controlled for optimum handling and product performance.
Material may be made in a variety of pastel colors and is available in widths from 6″ to 69″. Narrower widths may be accommodated – inquire with us for details.
Other applications include: bed pads, puppy/pet pads, absorbent cores, and wicking layers. This material is launderable.
Demonstrating Performance
Moisture wicks rapidly, uniformly, fully, and efficiently in all directions – because of our micro-capillary fibers network. Competitive products on the market today that tout “thinness” and “super-absorbancy” do not wick – their structure tends to absorb fluid that turns to gel, eventually impeding performance.
