The global nonwovens industry situation determines that its weight will continue to decline-News
Author: Date: 2019-11-23 07:42:50 Hits: 1007 is another important trend in all areas of non-woven cloth, g lies continued to decrease. This reduces the purchase cost of raw rice, transportation and storage costs, and waste disposal. From 2010 to 2015, the overall weight reduction of disposable non-woven fabrics was about 5.29%. From 2015 to 2020, the rate of reduction will decrease, and it is expected to further reduce 3.79% of the weight. This change in average weight is the result of equipment renewal, which can produce lighter weight products. For example, a new generation of spunbond yarns can produce non-woven fabrics of 8 to 10gsm for sanitary materials, replacing the original historical average of 10 to 12gsm. The same effect can also be achieved by substituting a completely different type of nonwoven fabric. For example, the grammage of the spunlace nonwoven fabric of wet wipes is as low as 35gsm, instead of the dry nonwoven fabric with a grammage of about 55g8m. Durable nonwovens also tend to have a lighter weight, which was reduced by 3.6% between 2010 and 2015, and is expected to be further reduced by 5.9% between 2015 and 2020. This decline in grammage can be partly attributed to the replacement of spunlace, carded, needle punched and other types of nonwovens with lightweight spunbond, meltblown and SMS. In the spunbond field, polypropylene spunbond nonwovens and fabrics weighing 22gsm have been reduced to 9gsm. With the technological advancement of the spunbond process, even lower grammes are commonplace.
