Eco-consciousness is rising around the world, and it's driving sweeping changes in the hygiene industry. Regulatory pressures, the circular economy, mobile apps that allow consumers to check ingredients – all are challenging hygiene producers to offer more natural, transparent, and sustainable products. In response, cotton and other natural fibers are playing an increasing role in efforts to offer more sustainable hygiene products and is a focus of innovation by key industry leaders, particularly in baby diapers and feminine care.
The challenge for many non woven hygiene producers is that natural materials, like cotton and viscose, can be more polar and swell during insult, putting more stress on the bond and leading to lower bonding performance, particularly in wet in-use conditions. Even with excessive coat weights, wet peel strength, and bonding performance can still be a challenge.
