Simply put, nonwoven fabric have opened doors of opportunity for everyday convenience that would have been the stuff of dreams or wild imagination not too long ago. Just like Henry Ford made it possible for everyday folks to own a car and the Wright brothers to glide from one part of the country to another over 1000 miles away in a matter of hours, nonwovens have revolutionized several industries, now being in hundreds of products which would otherwise be too expensive or not feasible to manufacture at a profit. One of the outstanding qualities of nonwovens is that they can be extremely durable, if that’s what’s needed, or single-use, limited-life fabrics. Beyond this, nonwovens possess limitlessly versatile qualities like super absorbency, resilience, liquid repellency, stretchability, strength, softness, flame retardancy, cushning, washability, bacterial barriers, filtering and sterility.

 

 

Able to combine these qualities in innumerable ways, nonwoven manufacturers create products with the unique, specific characteristics requested or needed by a client, usually at a very reasonable price. In spite of all these advantages, many people may not know about nonwovens and, if they do, they probably don’t know what a big, indispensable part of their lives nonwovens are.These disposable products are practical and affordable because of their tendencies to stay soft to the touch, not damage table surfaces, be 100% biodegradable & environmentally-friendly, come in beautiful designs, be appropriately hygienic, and reasonably priced. Nonwoven fabric is ideally suited for carpet construction enhancement by being able to extend the life of a carpet, by protecting the integrity of said product, and by reducing the chances for mold development or bacterial buildup, with proper use and deployment. 

 

These also make installation easier, help protect wooden surfaces and can also help make repairs more feasible. Unfortunately, disposable diapers have only been around for a short time, comparatively speaking.  Before their advent, there wasn’t really an alternative to cloth diapers.  Cloth diapers didn’t absorb much, were unnecessarily smelly and had to be laundered. Although the earliest forms of disposable diapers weren’t so great, the new designs have literally changed for the better the whole “how to keep babies fresh, comfortable, dry and clean for as long as possible” paradigm.  New disposable diapers come with color changing indicators that indicate if the child is wet, special sizing features, and re-attachable TM-type Velcro closures. A dry floor cloth can provide superlative performance and convenience. 

 

The nonwoven sheets used are made in required thicknesses that allow it to conform to just about any surface in order to more efficiently trap dirt, dust and hair. Nonwovens may help alleviate the energy crisis by helping to deliver cost-effective solutions related to heating.  Electrically conductive fabrics, with special under-padding integration, can help heat a surface, whether constructed of ceramic tiles, wood, ceiling tiles or wall coverings. In these scenarios heated fabrics could take the place of other heating systems by producing heat through radiation. Interestingly, new developments in nonwoven fabrics will create home furnishing products that are good at repelling dirt, getting rid of dust mites, and providing antimicrobial characteristics. Most people have used dryer sheets at least once in their lifetime. These durable fabrics, usually anti-static and of very thin construction, can put up with very high temperatures in the dryer.  They can also be made so that they gradually and over time release special softeners and scents while the clothes are being dried.
