Snapshot

Spun Bonded nonwoven fabrics are produced through the extrusion of continuous polymer filaments. These filaments fall randomly and are bonded through spun bonding, resulting in robust Spun Bond structures. The process produces nonwoven fabrics that are light and strong without weaving or knitting.
The key technology involved in the production of Spun Bonded involves thermal, chemical, or calender bonding, depending on the type of polymer. The key materials used in the production of Spun Bonded include thermoplastics such as polypropylene and spunbond polyester.
Spunbond fabric finds many applications in industry, healthcare, and consumer goods. The fabric is preferred due to its breathability, strength, and economy. It is used in the production of hygiene products, healthcare disposables, packaging materials, agricultural covers, geotextiles, filtration materials, and protective suits.
Types of Spun Bonded nonwovens are classified on the basis of type of polymer, method of bonding, and weight of fabric. Polypropylene fabrics are widely used in medical and hygiene products, while spunbond polyester is used in industrial, automotive, and construction applications due to its higher thermal and mechanical stability.
