Quality products that cost less
TKW is committed to developing innovative solutions which enable clients to manufacture better products whilst containing costs.
We have developed a production process where disposable substrates are created by combining spunbound and / or meltbown with fluff pulp in a single step, making it significantly simpler than complex card and spunlace systems.
Our technology eliminates hydroentanglement and the ensuing drying, and delivers manufacturers significant energy and cost savings.
for co-forming technologies newcomers.
CONSUMER TESTING:
MOST APPRECIATED BY CONSUMERS
Materials produced with Phantom and other co-forming technologies, even less current, are superior in providing a combination of hand protection and dirt capture, compared to those produced with traditional nonwoven production systems.
Phantom delivers greater fibre elongation compared to other co-forming technologies, resulting in a less rigid, more elastic product.
Phantom’s lower MDT / CDT ratio means a higher CDT and improved performance at lower weights.
