German nonwovens producer Sandler has introduced a modular system for hygiene products. Known as layerlab, this system offers tailor-made solutions for a range of applications in the hygiene market.
Because absorbent hygiene products are as individual as their use(s), adopting a holistic approach to these applications ensures that all elements are optimally coordinated for maximum performance and comfort. layerlab by Sandler Group is a modular system that allows manufacturers to choose exactly the materials that make their products unique. The system encompasses nonwovens for different functional layers in absorbent hygiene products: topsheets for rapid fluid absorption, acquisition and distribution layers (ADL) for efficient fluid distribution and intermediate storage, backsheets for optimum protection and breathability.
For each layer, options from three product classes are available, providing Sandler’s clients with a choice of materials to find the combination best suited to their specific requirements: Standard materials offer proven, tried and tested Sandler quality and reliable processing. Premium nonwovens provide additional functions, such as special fiber properties, increased strength, or an extra soft feel. Sustainable alternatives made from biodegradable or 100% bio-based raw materials are an ideal choice for plastic-free products with a reduced CO₂ footprint.
The new modular system offers a well-considered product structure that combines maximum functionality with efficiency - for baby care, menstrual care and incontinence applications. layerlab gives manufacturers the flexibility to combine materials according to their requirements, the sustainable alternatives to advance new product concepts, and across all available choices the established high Sandler quality for reliable performance. layerlab – the right solution for every application.
