Suominen Introduces Upgraded Flushable Substrate

Hydraspun Plus disperses three times as fast as earlier generation materials.

Suominen has expanded its offerings to the flushable wipes category through the launch of Hydraspun Dispersible Plus, a new range of  substrates for the global wipes market. This material breaks up more than three times faster than the standard Hydraspun Dispersible and clearly passes the INDA/EDANA third edition flushability assessment test protocols. Suominen has filed a patent for the range of products.

Suominen invented the first commercial flushable product in the late 1990s to provide consumers with a suitable replacement for non-flushable materials like paper towels and baby wipes which are commonly flushed by the consumer.

Speaking about the Hydraspun Dispersible Plus introduction, Kyra Dorsey, PhD, Product Manager, says, “It is wonderful to bring to the global wipes market an innovation which is the result of understanding  consumer needs, listening to our customers, as well as, considering the expectations of the municipal wastewater systems.”
