Seven categories recognized innovation in nonwovens.
SoftLite fabrics cater to the need for lighter and softer hygiene products. With basis weights as low as 15 grams, SoftLite fabrics are not only lighter, but they also provide the high performance and soft comfort end users need.

Ultra SCS is a revolutionary patent-pending strand applicator that is specifically designed for the disposable hygiene market. SCS technology brings the highest level of efficiency to the application of adhesive coatings on elastic strands for enhanced manufacturing line efficiency and superior end product performance. Gina Powers, vice president/general manager, ITW Dynatec, (pictured center) accepted the award during the ceremony.
Based on its round shaped particles, with micro-pores, Saviva has an innovative liquid distribution mechanism, making it a highly efficient superabsorbent polymer in a diaper core.

Impossible Objects has developed a new, industrial 3D printing (aka “additive manufacturing”) technology that uses nonwoven fabrics – such as carbon, glass and aramid – to make strong yet lightweight fiber-reinforced composite parts. Its technology is called CBAM, which stands for Composite-Based Additive Manufacturing. CBAM technology makes parts that are up to ten times stronger than plastic parts made from other 3D printing technologies. This is because CBAM uses strong nonwovens such as carbon fiber fabric.
