The most-viewed story on our website in April was the news of Freudenberg Performance Materials’ new fine denier spunbond. The unique fine filament technology is made from a wide variety of polymers and blends using mono or bico fibers. The high flexibility and broad customization options provide benefits in a wide range of markets and applications, ranging from roofing membranes to liquid filtration, as well as specific applications such as dehumidification products and artificial turf. 
 
In other news, Hiro Technologies launched the world’s first MycoDigestible Diapers (means “digested by fungi”), a first-of-its-kind product designed to break down in a landfill thanks to fungi-powered decomposition technology. Co-founded by serial entrepreneurs Miki Agrawal (Thinx, Tushy) and Tero Isokauppila (Four Sigmatic), Hiro's launch marks the debut of an entirely new category of sustainability—a natural end-of-life solution for plastic waste, beginning with the one item parents can’t live without.
