Offers a fully biodegradable alternative for wipes producers

The German viscose speciality fibre manufacturer Kelheim Fibres will be showcase its innovative viscose specialty fibres this week at the World of Wipes (WOW) Conference in Atlanta, GA.


In the realm of convenient single-use wipes, environmental considerations play a crucial role. Kelheim's viscose fibres, made from sustainably sourced wood pulp, offer a fully biodegradable alternative that does not burden the environment with (micro)plastics. Not only are Kelheim Fibres' solutions environmentally friendly, but they also excel in all nonwoven manufacturing processes, ensuring seamless integration into existing production lines. Moreover, these fibres are exceptionally soft and bulky, providing a gentle touch and a ttruly luxurious feel in every wipe.
 

Additionally, Kelheim Fibres has developed short cut fibres that enable the production of flushable wipes allowing for hygienic and convenient disposal through the toilet without the risk of causing blockages in domestic or public sewage pipes.  Kelheim’s speciality viscose fibres for wipes include  VILOFT® nonwoven and Danufil® Short Cut.
