This not only enhances their products by reducing
weight and offering inherent corrosion resistance,
but also enables OEMs to consolidate parts into
one economical step and use the streamlined
processing method of injection molding.
Leveraging this process,
these materials provide a strong and stiff final part
with extreme temperature resistance.
Additionally, composites are inherently
corrosion-resistant and can be specifically tailored
to performance requirements and cost targets.

The
concentrates provide the same breathability
as post-treated fabrics with no influence on
tenacity and provide abrasion resistance.
Recommended use: nonwoven products
that need protection from liquid (e.g.,
roofing underlays, tablecloths, pipe wraps,
face masks)
ANTIMICROBIAL
Antimicrobial additives are important for
nonwoven fabrics used in PPE (Personal
Protective Equipment) and healthcare
applications.
Cesa™ antimicrobial
additives for nonwovens are resistant to
washing for long-lasting antimicrobial
effectiveness.
