Germany’s leading nonwovens company and a partner of the hygiene industry, Sandler AG, is set to present new developments for transportation, filtration, construction,, and interior acoustics, at Techtextil North America, the fifteenth edition of North America’s technical textiles and nonwovens show, to be held from May 22 to 24, 2018, in US, in booth 1940.

The company will show high-performance absorber nonwovens of the sawasorb series at the expo. These absorbers dampen engine and road noise, thus enabling passengers to hold conversations at a normal volume—even at high speeds. Nonwovens for exterior applications are hydrophobic and oleophobic throughout their entire operating live, making them resistant to fluids used in the engine compartment.

Composites made from nonwovens and fibre-reinforced plastics combine the advantages of textile and plastics engineering: Sandwich structures for LWRT-parts (lightweight reinforced thermoplastics) foster lightweight designs and demonstrate how a high degree of stability can be achieved with extremely light materials. The trend towards electromobility will no doubt initiate many interesting conversations on sound and heat insulation in vehicles during the trade fair. Sandler will accompany this development with competence in nonwovens.

In filtration, the new ISO 16890 standard is shaping product development and material classification. A filter’s performance is now measured using a more practical approach with regard to particle distribution in the air. The new Sandler enAIRsave nonwovens, which contribute to lowering the energy consumption in the filtration unit owing to a special multi-layer structure, will be a part of the show.

Nonwovens of the fibercomfort product line enable product solutions for quiet rooms and technical insulation. Sheet material made from 100 per cent polyester dampen the noise level in rooms as part of wall and ceiling systems, partitions, furniture or acoustically efficient wall decoration, creating a quiet environment at the workplace as well as at home.

Visitors will have an opportunity to experience the acoustic efficiency of these materials for themselves at the plaza area of the High-Tex at the forum. Here, a flexible partition and elegant seating cubes made from 100 per cent Sandler nonwovens will serve as examples of the many opportunities for nonwovens to be used in visible applications at the expo.
