Nonwoven materials yields better filtration efficiency compared to other materials.
Needle felt nonwovens are mostly used as filtration fabrics. Various types of textile fibers are used as nonwoven filtration fabrics depending on performance.
The portfolio includes drylaid, spunlaid, meltblown and wetlaid nonwovens. With high technical ability and a wide range of customers in different industries, Ribamatic is your ideal partner to slit nonwoven technologies and materials.
Our range of roll cutting machines are developed to slit with high accuracy the most difficult nonwovens. We are committed to fight against Covid-19 with our roll slitters for disposable face mask producers, also called disposable surgical masks, surgical gowns, protective medical dresses and all kind of hospital products.
Spundbond nonwovens
Spundbond nonwovens are used as standalone materials, offering low weight with relatively high strength properties.
Our range of roll slitting machines for spundbond polypropylene nonwovens is used mainly in medical, hygienic, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. They can be also composed of other materials, gaining completely new properties. The compositions are used mainly for hygienic applications, construction goods and in automotive industry.
Protective medical laminate
The material is covered with polyethylene, which creates a layer resistant to synthetic blood. It can be used for gown and coverall protection, but it is not a breathable material.
SMS Nonwoven
A three-layer nonwoven fabric with a carefully selected material composition, thanks to which it gains unique properties such as positive bacterial filtration (tests above 98%), low permeability of pollutants and liquids, free air flow (breathable material), wear resistance and tear resistance.
The use of nonwovens as filtration materials
In all manufacturing industries, filtration is an important process in separating the unwanted dust particles during the process.
Our roll slitters are really efficient when roll cutting these nonwovens materials.
Our engineering departments have been working to develop the right roll slitting machine for this market and, currently, the main filter manufacturers are cutting with our slitter machine.
Textile materials play a vital role in industrial filters. Filtration process consists of two main processes: filtration and filter cleaning.
Woven, knitted and nonwoven textile materials are generally used as filter fabrics.
Nonwoven materials yield better filtration efficiency compared to other materials. Needle felt nonwovens are mostly used as filtration fabrics. Various types of textile fibers are used as nonwoven filtration fabrics depending on performance.
The nonwoven filter offers the possibility of collecting particles on the filter surface (surface filtration) and in the filter medium installation (depth filtration). Wet filtration media are usually very thin and compacted media. Liquid filtration is a fast-growing market fornonwovens.
Spundbond nonwovens
Our range of roll slitting machines for spundbond polypropylene nonwovens is used mainly in medical, hygienic, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
The design of the gown is universal and can be freely adjusted to any silhouette. Waterproof and breathable material was used for gowns.
The protective coverall has a well-fitted hood and the possibility of adjusting cuffs and sleeves. They provide a very good protection against harmful external factors.
Our roll slitters are really efficient when roll cutting these nonwovens materials.
