What is Spunlace Nonwoven?
Spunlace, also known as hydroentangled nonwoven, is a soft and durable fabric created by entangling fibers using high-pressure water jets. Unlike thermal or chemical bonding methods, spunlace relies purely on mechanical entanglement, making it ideal for applications requiring both strength and softness. At Yiting, we apply spunlace technology to produce tea pouch paper, wet wipes, and premium packaging solutions.
How is Spunlace Nonwoven Made?
The spunlace production process includes:
Web Formation– Natural or synthetic fibers are carded or airlaid into a loose web.
Hydroentanglement– High-pressure water jets entangle the fibers to bond them mechanically.
Drying– The web is dried and rolled for finishing.
Yiting’s equipment allows precise control of water pressure, entanglement density, and fiber blends, ensuring optimal performance for both dry and wet applications.
