At IDEA13 in Miami, NatureWorks showcased the latest developments in Ingeo nonwoven biopolymer applications via exhibits at its own and various partner stands, along with technical presentations, and workshops.
Over the last few years, significant advances have been made with both spunbond and meltblown fabrics, the company reports. Combined with the broad range of commercially-available Ingeo staple fibre products these provide real options for more nonwovens with positive environmental impacts that don’t sacrifice performance.
Ingeo spunbond and metblown producers at the IDEA show included Ahlstrom, Biax-Fiberfilm, Fitesa, Sandler, US Pacific and Wenzhou Changlong, in addition to fibre producer Far Eastern New Century.
