We have been leading the way in the development and manufacture of Super Absorbent Fibre (SAF™) for nearly three decades, and, more recently, SAF™ fabrics and SAF™ spun yarns. Supplying solutions globally, innovation is key and we continue to design new technologies to meet the specific requirements of our growing customer base. Applications for our products span numerous market sectors, including: Healthcare (medical and hygiene); Industrial (filtration and cable); Food (packaging); Environmental (horticulture). Needlefelt Fabrics SAF™ Needlefelt fabrics are capable of absorbing many times their own weight in water/saline. These fabrics are more robust than others within the range. They offer greater strength and integrity due to the nature of mechanical bonding (needling) used during manufacture. They are generally less dense than other SAF™ fabrics, but still offer the same great levels of absorption. Airlaid Fabrics SAF™ Airlaid fabrics are capable of absorbing many times their own weight in water/saline and locking it away inside their core. Finishes such as laminates can also be added for additional functionality, e.g. waterproof backing. Such fabrics are ideal for a wide range of applications, including food packaging, medical, hygiene and filtration. Thermo-Carded Fabrics SAF™ Thermo-Carded fabrics are cost-effective, thinner materials that still provide high levels of absorbency. They are lightweight, discrete, conformable, and can be manufactured with a number of layers. This makes them ideal for applications that require performance without the bulk. Washable Fabrics SAF™ Washable fabrics provide the same high levels of absorbency as our disposable fabrics but can be washed and re-used.
