    Omya Receives Inaugural INDEX People's Prize

    Omyafiber video received most likes on INDEX's Linkedin page

    Omya International received the inaugural ‘People’s Prize’ at part of the INDEX Innovation Awards earlier this week. This new categry was introduced to ensure visibility for all the Awards nominees’ projects and demonstrating the breadth of creativity in the nonwovens industry and its suppliers. The company whose video gathered the greatest number of ‘likes’ on the INDEX Nonwovens LinkedIn page was deemed the prize winner.


    Each nominee's video was shown on the INDEX Linked In page for 19 days, and Omya International's Omyafiber 800 received the most likes.


    Due to its high-purity and unique surface-treatment, Omyafiber, a Calcium Carbonate for PP spunmelt and dry-laid nonwovens, provides advantages in both, masterbatch compounding and nonwoven production. Omyafiber is neither skin irritant nor sensitizing and is even food-approved. Its main characteristics are cost savings, natural cotton-like haptics and the softness of spunlace fabrics, improved mechanical properties of high- and low-grammage fabrics and increased whiteness.
     

    The award was presented during a virtual awards ceremony earlier this month.

    In congratulating the winners, and recognising the outstanding efforts of the nominees, Pierre Wiertz, general manager of EDANA ssaysaid, “In these trying times, the world is beginning to acknowledge the valuable contribution that nonwovens have to play in our society. The projects of the winners announced today, and those their fellow nominees, just go to prove the depth of ingenuity and remarkable know-how that exist in the nonwovens industry and its suppliers. The significant progress being made, particularly in the field of sustainability, leaves me in no doubt that the recognition of the role that nonwovens have to play in constructing our future will only increase, and is witness to the industry’s wholehearted intention to do so responsibly’’.

    The Awards Winners and nominees will be on display in the INDEX™ Innovation Lab, as part of INDEX™20 exhibition, taking place in Geneva from 7 – 10 September 2021.
