The mainstream of the future: Spunbond nonwovens and meltblown nonwovens

On the whole, spunbond nonwovens and meltblown nonwovens are bound to become the 'new darlings' in the market in 2020 or even in the next 5 years due to the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic. In 2019, my country's spunbonded nonwovens and meltblown nonwovens Spun fabrics accounted for 49.8% and 1.07% of the year’s output, respectively. The market scale and output of spunbonded nonwovens and meltblown nonwovens will be further improved.





Spunlace non-woven fabric


At present, the main uses of spunlace non-woven fabrics are divided into three categories, namely medical, artificial leather and cleaning; its sales directions are: artificial leather spunlace cloth is mainly for domestic sales, and medical spunlace cloth is mainly for export For export, wiping with spunlace cloth will account for both export and domestic sales. In the future, with the continuous improvement of residents' consumption ability and the continuous improvement of the quality of life requirements, my country's disposable non-woven fabrics, that is, most cleaning products, will usher in a new development climax in the future. As the main application field of spunlace cloth, the market demand for cleaning products will be further improved.


Spunbond non-woven fabric


The main products of spunbond non-woven fabrics are polypropylene, polyester (long fiber, short fiber), and the most common and most commonly used are non-woven bags, non-woven packaging and other applications. In addition, because spunbond non-woven fabrics have excellent properties such as high strength, high temperature resistance, and good air permeability, they are also used in medical and health products such as masks.


Due to the outbreak of the new coronavirus in 2020, the demand for masks has increased sharply. In the production process of the filter part of the masks, due to the high strength, spunbonded non-woven fabrics are required for the surface and inner layers. With the explosive growth in the demand for masks, the demand for spunbond non-woven fabrics related to the production of masks has also increased significantly. At the same time, the increase in capacity utilization is expected to further drive product profit margins.


Wet-laid non-woven fabric


In addition to being widely used in packaging, building materials, clothing and other fields, wet-laid non-woven fabrics are also used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, water treatment and other fields. According to the latest statistics, in developed countries, wet-laid non-woven fabric products have accounted for more than 30% of fiber products and are still growing. The production of wet-laid non-woven fabrics in my country is relatively low. According to data from the China Industrial Textile Industry Association, in 2019, wet-laid non-woven fabrics accounted for 0.64% of the total output of non-woven fabrics, and its output reached 3.98 tons, which is relatively low compared with developed countries. Big potential market.


Needle punched non-woven fabric


As the application fields of needle-punched non-woven products are becoming more and more extensive, for example, with the continuous development of my country’s automobile industry, its demand and requirements for sound insulation materials are also increasing, which will continue to drive my country’s needle-punched non-woven fabrics The market demand for woven fabrics.


Meltblown non-woven fabric


Affected by the new crown virus, the demand for medical and health products such as masks and protective clothing has increased sharply. Meltblown nonwovens are the core upstream products of medical and health products.
