Finland based supplier of nonwovens, Suominen has launched its new lightweight product Fibrella Lite Spunlace to its nonwoven offering, which targets the global hygiene market in particular.

According to Suominen, Fibrella Lite nonwovens meet the exacting requirements for a light yet stretchable material with strength and elongation properties required in laminates for absorbent hygiene products in baby care and adult incontinence applications.

Available in 25 gsm and 28 gsm configurations, Fibrella Lite offer versatility for combination of materials using hot-melt, extrusion, heat and ultrasonic lamination.

Its cloth-like, extremely soft feel, the breathability and skin-friendliness of Fibrella Lite make it an ideal element in laminates for hygiene products.

Lynda Kelly, SVP Care Business Area, said “Suominen’s expansion into the hygiene business is one of the key elements of our growth strategy.”

“Fibrella Lite is a perfect example of innovative application of technology to match traditionally incompatible nonwoven features like softness, strength and light weight together in one material,” she added.

“Applicability for various lamination processes creates a broad range of end products making Fibrella Lite very attractive and exciting” Marjo Kuisma, product manager for hygiene market informs. (AR)
