New premium outdoor PP fibers for needlepunched crop covers among product range
At IDEA 25, Beaulieu Fibres International is exhibiting its next-generation sustainable fiber solutions for high performance nonwovens in various industries.
Beaulieu is showcasing its comprehensive range of polypropylene (PP) bonding fibers designed for thermoplastic lightweight composites and automotive interior fabrics. These fibers assist car manufacturers and OEMs in meeting stringent performance, cost-efficiency, and sustainability standards.
Beaulieu’s PP fibers are engineered to enhance the mechanical, thermal, and functional properties of composites while reducing vehicle weight.
Beaulieu Fibres International has set new performance standards for the fast-growing air and liquid filtration industry rolling out its full range of MONO and BICO fine-medium count fibers, as an outcome of its investment into R&D efforts to promote staple fibers in the field of high efficiency filtration.
In addition to its existing portfolio of PP fibers for liquid filtration, compliant with FDA and European food contact regulations, Beaulieu is launching a new bicomponent fiber range in PET/PE, PP/PE for high loft filtration media and fine count mono PP fibers for tribo-electric charged air filter media.
The fine count mono fibers are customized according to the line specifics of the nonwoven producer and guarantee up to 20% higher filtration efficiencies for nonwovens in combination with state-of-the-art acrylic counter fiber compared to standard PP fibers used in this application. Typical applications are air handling units in larger buildings and residential furnaces.
Engineered for superior mechanical strength and resistance to environmental stress factors, these fibers enhance durability in needle-punched fabrics, ensuring long-lasting protection in the field. Their advanced UV stabilization prevents degradation from prolonged sun exposure, extending the lifespan of crop covers, while their hydrophobic properties repel water, reducing moisture-related damage and maintaining breathability.
UltraBond innovative bonding staple fibers replace the need for chemical binders. They open a path to create 100% polypropylene (PP) needlepunched fabrics which meet the same performance requirements as traditional constructions, while reducing end-of-life environmental impact.
The 100% polyolefin-based needlepunched fabrics are fully recyclable, reducing waste generation and creating high value PP recycled products as new materials. Furthermore, the sustainable fabrics are produced with an improved Total Cost of Ownership and with a significant ecological footprint reduction.
With a full portfolio already serving the hygiene sector, Beaulieu is focusing on next-generation speciality bicomponent solutions designed to enhance softness, processability, and sustainability in absorbent hygiene products.
Hypersoft fibers are specifically engineered for topsheet applications in direct contact with the skin: 25% improvement in softness compared to standard reference fibers while maintaining optimal processability has been achieved.
Meralux is a bicomponent trilobal fiber that improves nonwoven materials by providing better opacity, comfort, and absorption. It also promotes sustainability by saving raw materials and reducing carbon emissions by up to 60%.
