Technical Absorbents, a manufacturer of superabsorbent fibers, will launch a new washable nonwoven fabric technology, at INDEX in April. The material, when used as a core within protective outer materials, can be laundered and dried with minimal absorbency loss. This fabric has been developed as a solution for different industry sectors including hygiene and apparel.

The company has also added a range of lower basis weight fabrics to its portfolio, which have been developed with external converters. Ranging from 20-80gsm, the new fabrics are a fantastic addition for those customers searching for cost effective thinner fabrics that still offer high levels of absorbency.
 
“Over the past three years, Technical Absorbents has really been committed to furthering its product offering and strengthening its position in the industry as a super absorbent solutions provider,” explains commercial director Paul Rushton.
 
“What will be displayed at INDEX is just a small part of what has been achieved. The company is proud to offer a bespoke service to customers and many projects involve a brief and the development of custom made solutions that provide a performance advantage through the employment of SAFTM technology. However, it is important that innovation continues and the company brings to market new and exciting ideas that stimulate customers’ own development projects,” he adds.
