Non-woven fabrics are manufactured from chemical fibers and plant fibers via wet-laid or dry-laid paper-making machines with water or air as the suspension medium. Although categorized as fabric, they require no weaving or knitting process, hence the name non-woven fabrics. As a new generation of eco-friendly materials, non-woven fabrics feature high tensile strength, air permeability, water resistance, environmental friendliness, flexibility, odorlessness, cost-effectiveness, water repellency, flame resistance, non-irritation and rich color options, making them versatile for diverse industrial and civilian applications.
