Non-woven fabrics are changing our lives

Twenty years ago, my country’s first spunbonded non-woven fabric production line was established in Guangdong. By 2006, my country’s total non-woven fabric output exceeded 1.2 million tons, four times that of Japan and six times that of South Korea, making it the world’s No. The second largest non-woven fabric producer. As a product of modern industrial civilization, non-woven fabrics finally entered the homes of ordinary people. Our lives and our living environment are changing because of it.

According to the plan of the Ministry of Transportation, by 2010, my country will need 267,300 tons of automotive textiles. The survey shows that the sales volume of automotive textiles in my country is increasing at a rate of 15% to 20% every year. The domestically produced automotive textiles cannot meet the fast-growing needs of the automotive industry. There is a large market gap and large amounts of imports are required from abroad. The annual import amount is about US$4 billion. There are hundreds of types of cars, transport vehicles, mini-cars, and agricultural vehicles in my country. Since 1995, the demand for automotive textiles has been increasing every year, but the current domestic production of automotive textiles is far from being able to meet the increasing demands of the automotive industry.

SARS in 2003, let us know that masks made of non-woven fabrics are more antibacterial than gauze masks. From wound care gauze, masks, surgical gowns, surgical gowns, and bandages, non-woven products have more applications due to their barrier properties, antibacterial properties, softness and comfort requirements. In addition, the field of medical textiles, because of its huge scientific and technological content and considerable profits, has also allowed more people to start a more in-depth development. It is understood that the development of medical textiles in various countries around the world is speeding up. There are already 17 textile research institutions in Germany that have invested in the research and development of medical textiles. my country has also begun necessary preparations and investments in this field.

For a long time, sanitary products have required softness, drape, no irritation to the skin, and good air permeability.

Taking baby diapers as an example, non-woven materials have been basically used in the surface layer, side edges, flow guiding layer, absorbent layer, and back layer of the baby diaper. As one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century, nonwovens are not only changing our lives, but also changing our concepts.

Because spunbond nonwovens have high tensile strength, high tear resistance, good uniformity, good softness, rich colors and other properties, they have occupied an increasingly important position in the field of home furnishing and packaging applications.
