The main drive factor behind the use of nonwovens in the construction sector is the low CO² footprint, fire-resistant properties, cost-effectiveness, contribution to energy saving, breathability.

Nonwovens are actively used in insulation, roofing, membranes and ceiling covers with several other applications.

The nonwovens bring about advantages in construction with the following features. They have high tensile strength and multi-directional elongation, high durability and absorbency.

Nonwovens technologies used in construction:

• Drylaid
• Needle punching
• Hydro entanglement
• Thermobond
• Spunmelt
