HELSINKI - Nonwovens manufacturer Suominen has launched its latest Biolace with cotton, a 100% biodegradable and compostable cotton enhanced wipe,
on the US market.
This specially designed cotton enhanced product is said to offer high levels of softness and opacity. Its design also helps prevent fluid migration, which results in appropriate wetness in every sheet and potentially less add-on needed.
“The ability to resist fluid migration in the package better than the equivalent made with 100% viscose helps ensure that wipes do not dry out prematurely,” explained Andrew Charleston, manager, category management, Americas.
Biolace with cotton is made by combining multiple sustainable fibres using filtered water. This material can help reduce solution add-on requirements compared to other 100% sustainable options due to a combination of fibre selection and process techniques.
According to Suominen, this can help reduce converting costs without the need to compromise on delivering optimal cleaning from a sustainable material.
The wipe has a number of applications including baby care, personal care, medical and hygiene uses.
