Hydraspun Aquaflo offers improved dispersibility
September 29, 2021

Suominen has successfully developed Hydraspun Aquaflo, a moist toilet tissue with improved dispersibility. Hydraspun Aquaflo offers near parity dispersion with dry toilet tissue but with premium thickness for a better consumer experience in use. With Hydraspun Aquaflo, Suominen sets a new standard for dispersible nonwovens. The flushable nonwovens substrate passed the stringent standards for dispersibility set by both the International Water Services Flushability Group (IWSFG) and INDA/EDANA (GD4) in independent testing. “We are extremely proud to launch Hydraspun Aquaflo. Its 100% cellulosic fiber composition is evidence of sustainable origins and its capability to fully and rapidly break down in wastewater provides biodegradability in disposal, giving consumers an end-to-end eco-friendly solution for personal care. Dry toilet tissue is recognized as the material most capable of breaking down in sewer systems and Hydraspun Aquaflo was developed with this result in mind, “says Andrew Charleston, Manager, Category Management, Americas. Hydraspun Aquaflo is proof of Suominen’s emphasis on delivering industry leading innovations and its position as a clear frontrunner in innovative and sustainable nonwovens. In other news Suominen has launched a second nonwoven product, Hydraspun Regal, that has received the Fine to Flush Manufacturer’s Generic Certificate from Water UK. Hydraspun Regal was developed to meet the increasing need for flushable wipes that are dispersible according to the Water UK’s flushability standard. “Hydraspun Regal has been developed to broaden our portfolio with the product meets the latest dispersibility standards in the UK, and it has passed Fine to Flush standards. Receiving yet another Fine to Flush certification from the Water UK is a remarkable achievement for Suominen”, says Johanna Kivistö, Manager, Category Management, Europe. This product made of plastic free and biodegradable raw materials, containing only cellulosic fibers and has a low-level carbon footprint due to its high pulp content.
