Platform helps create nonwoven performance advantages

OMNOVA has introduced an innovative technology platform for wipes consisting of a unique finishing treatment and compatible specialized binders. The platform helps create nonwoven performance advantages including thinner, softer, durable, more absorbent, lint-free wipes as well as the ability to substitute substrate components without impacting performance.

This special three-part platform includes special Sunbond and Acrygen binders and the innovative SoftWick SF20 surface treatment. It is ideal for use on polypropylene, polyester, PLA, and multi-fiber component substrates, and it enables the reduction of viscose in substrates without sacrificing softness or absorbency. With strong ionic compatibility between all the platform elements, the individual OMNOVA products can be used standalone or in tandem, based on performance requirements.
