　　Spunlace nonwoven fabric, also known as spunlace cloth, boasts the advantage of being able to laminate its spunlace web with any base fabric to produce composite finished products; moreover, it can be tailored to create a wide range of functional materials for diverse applications.

　　Introduction to Spunlace Nonwoven Fabric

　　Spunlace nonwoven fabric is produced by spraying high-pressure, fine water jets onto one or more layers of fiber web, causing the fibers to entangle and interlock, thereby reinforcing the web and imparting a certain level of tensile strength. The resulting material is known as spunlace nonwoven fabric.

　　Processing Principle

　　A high-pressure-generated multi‑stream fine water jet is used to spray the fiber web. After passing through the web, the water jet rebounds off the support mesh and re‑penetrates the web. Under the hydraulic action of these high‑velocity, cross‑directed water jets, the fibers within the web undergo displacement, interpenetration, entanglement, and cohesion, thereby reinforcing the web.

It is not formed by interweaving or knotting individual yarns; instead, the fibers are bonded directly through physical means. That’s why, when you examine the fabric of your garment, you’ll find that it’s impossible to pull out separate threads. Nonwoven fabrics break with traditional textile manufacturing principles and boast a short production process, high speed, high output, low cost, broad applicability, and versatile raw material sources.

Global nonwoven fabric production has surged! If equipment and technology aren’t upgraded soon, the situation will become critical.

In 2015, manufacturers of polypropylene spunbond and meltblown nonwovens in the nonwoven industry fully capitalized on the market value of this technology, enjoying strong growth momentum. For example, the Argentine nonwoven company Scalter announced the acquisition from a Chinese firm of a polypropylene spunbond production line with an annual capacity of 8,000 tons. Reportedly, this line comprises two spunbond lines, two chemical-bonding lines, one thermal-bonding line, a printing machine, and knitting equipment, all installed at its Buenos Aires plant, thereby enhancing Scalter’s existing operational efficiency. Investing in the most cutting-edge equipment has enabled Scalter to—

Nonwoven fabric is a type of non‑woven textile that is produced by directly forming fibers—whether polymer chips, short fibers, or filaments—into a web using air‑laid or mechanical processes, followed by reinforcement through hydroentanglement, needle punching, or thermal bonding, and finally finishing. It is a novel fibrous material characterized by softness, breathability, and a planar structure. Its advantages include the absence of fiber shedding, high strength, durability, silk‑like softness, and a cotton‑like feel. Compared with cotton fabrics, nonwoven bags are easier to shape and more cost‑effective. Key characteristics of nonwoven fabrics include: durability versus disposability; insulating versus conductive properties; softness versus stiffness; density versus bulkiness; isotropy versus anisotropy; and filtration capabilities.
