UK based producer of Super Absorbent Fibre (SAF) and related yarns and fabrics, Technical Absorbents Ltd, has unveiled a new online shop.

The company in a press release informed that it will initially sell sample quantities of its fibre and nonwoven fabric ranges on the ecommerce site, but is aiming to expand the site over the coming months.

“In the past we have been reliant on traditional sales routes and having products listed on the internet, will hopefully further the already high level of interest in our SAF technology,” commercial director Stuart Coomber said.

“The initial launch range is now complete and in some instances products are listed as enquire only and the site allows people to contact us directly about a specific product or buy a small amount for initial trials,” he added.

“From a product development perspective, the shop should make it easier for prospective customers to access information, understand the capabilities of our technology and speed up initial material selection,” Coomber stated.

Technical Absorbents has been manufacturing SAF since inception in 1993 and has also developed a wide range of SAF containing converted products like nonwoven fabrics in needlfelt, airlaid and carded and also yarns and tapes.

Its technology is currently used in a wide range of applications from advanced wound care products to water removal from oils and fuels. (AR)
