Chicopee and Sontara will be exhibiting together under their new parent company, Magnera, at Europropre Paris 2025. While both brands remain distinct, they bring complementary expertise to meet a variety of customer needs. 

Visitors to stand T30-U29 in Hall 1 can explore a wide range of innovative and sustainable wipes from both brands. Chicopee’s offering will focus on general cleaning markets such as hospitality and healthcare, while Sontara specializes in high-performance solutions for industrial and aerospace applications.

Among the solutions on display will be Chicopee’s rMicrofibre 100% recycled microfibre wipes, Sontara’s EC Green home compostable certified wipes, and their newest TriFlo ultra-absorbent multipurpose wipes.

rMicrofibre from Chicopee is the first and only 100% microfiber and 100% recycled wipe, which achieves 99.97% bacteria removal using just water, perfect for reducing chemical usage in hospitality applications. Made with 100% recycled fibers certified by GRS, rMicrofibre stands out as a pioneer in fully recycled microfibre disposable wipes, reducing the carbon footprint of the wipe by up to 50% versus non-recycled alternatives and giving a new life to recycled materials.

As such, it fills a crucial gap in the cleaning market with the ever-increasing demand for sustainable wiping solutions and the surge in touchscreen technology in facilities. rMicrofibre is designed to provide maximum cleaning effectiveness in high-risk and high-traffic areas, where laundered wipes would pose a risk, while supporting users in their sustainability goals.

Sontara EC Green is a home compostable certified and plastic-free engineered cloth designed for high demanding industrial and hospitality applications – and FCC-certified for food contact use. Made with renewable cellulosic raw materials, it is durable enough for multiple uses, and can then be composted in home environments, offering a sustainable solution that doesn’t compromise on quality.

Sontara TriFlo represents a breakthrough in nonwoven technology, crafted using a proprietary high-pressure water jet process that creates a strong, absorbent web without the use of binders, chemicals, or adhesives. This advanced production process allows the creation of products with exceptional properties, including the new TriFlo ultra-absorbent multipurpose wipes, which offer maximum absorption and are virtually lint-free.

“For years, Chicopee and Sontara have set the standard in professional wipes in all applications – from foodservice to industrial and everything in between. Now, with both brands being part of Magnera, we’re perfectly placed to expand on each brand’s strengths and portfolios to develop innovative products with a big focus on sustainability,” says Lorenzo Vaira, product manager for Europe, Chicopee and Sontara.
