As a leading producer and processor of nonwoven fabrics with a hand in many markets in China, Beautiful continues with strategic investment to expand its global influence and strengthen its own capabilities in four areas: nonwoven fabric roll stocks, disposable medical products, nonwoven products for industrial and household applications and further processing of nonwoven fabrics. “Although the depression of global economy in 2012 brought adverse affects on many markets such as aviation products, automotive products and geotextiles, the demand for medical and hygiene materials and its products were still strong,” says Deng. “Beautiful successfully resisted various unfavorable factors and achieved good results in 2012 due to the company’s complete production and supply chain and good long-term relationships with our customers and suppliers.” The company possesses advanced SMMMS, SMS, SSS nonwoven production lines and has a closed workshop environment.

Beautiful’s SMMMS material is widely used in medical products and Beautiful is one of the few suppliers in China, whose material can meet international standards on medical nonwovens. With the development of disposable medical products in the global and domestic medical market, disposable nonwoven medical products will be the focus of Beautiful strategic development moving forward. “Hydrostatic head of spunmelt nonwovens must be improved to provide better barrier protection for surgical gowns/drapes and the comfort of wearing must be considered in the meantime,” says Deng. “These two properties are effectively balanced to optimize the medical nonwoven through plenty of innovative improvements and it has gained acceptance and compliments from customers. Now Beautiful will start to develop surgical gowns, surgical drapes, sterilization wrapping material with high barrier performance and multi-functions.”
