Medical and Healthcare
Being disposable and suitable for one-time use, nonwovens are used very widely in medical areas
Nonwovens play a vital role in the medical and healthcare sectors, thanks to their disposability and suitability for single-use applications. Products such as surgical gowns, masks, and other protective wear are designed to safeguard medical professionals from biological hazards, including viruses, bacteria, and bodily fluids. These nonwoven materials act as essential safety barriers.
The increasing prevalence of drug-resistant bacteria and the ongoing challenges posed by pandemics, such as COVID-19, have highlighted the critical importance of nonwovens in healthcare. These materials help mitigate the risk of infection, reduce the spread of diseases, and prevent cross-contamination, ensuring better protection for both medical staff and patients.
The main technologies used to produce medical-grade nonwovens include:
- Meltblown
- Drylaid
- Spunlaced
- Spunbond
- Occasional Hydroentanglement
Nonwoven fabrics remain indispensable in maintaining safety and hygiene standards in healthcare environments, contributing to improved outcomes in infection control and patient care.
