Bemliese is the world’s only continuous-filament cellulose nonwoven fabric. It is composed of regenerated cellulose fibre made from cotton linter, the short fibres on cotton seeds. These natural origins impart a high level of environmental compatibility which makes Bemliese the ideal material for a wide range of applications—in the skincare and medical fields, as wipers for industrial and commercial use, in landscaping, and in beverage filtration.
