SMMS non-woven fabric materials
SMS nonwoven fabric (English: Spunbond+Meltblown+Spunbond nonwoven) belongs to composite nonwoven fabric, which is a composite product of spunbond and meltblown. It has high strength, good filtering ability, no adhesive, non-toxic and other advantages. Temporarily important for regulating health care products such as surgical gowns, surgical caps, protective clothing, hand sanitizers, handbags, etc. The data factor is fiber.
PP non-woven fabric
The full name of PP is polypropylene, also known as polypropylene in Chinese. NW stands for nonwoven, which is roughly equivalent to non-woven fabric. It is a non-woven fabric produced by subjecting fibers to cyclone or plate stagnation, followed by water jet, needle punching, or cold rolling reinforcement. The PPNW principle refers to non-woven fabrics made from PP fibers. Due to the inherent nature of PP, the fabric exhibits high strength, but poor hydrophilicity. The process of PPNW often involves spinning into a mesh and cold rolling for reinforcement. PPNWs are widely used in packaging bags, surgical protective clothing, industrial fabrics, and more.
The difference between SMS non-woven fabric and PP non-woven fabric
Different properties: Non woven fabrics are composed of oriented or random fibers. SMS non-woven fabric is a composite product of spunbond and meltblown.
Different features: SMS non-woven fabric has high strength, good filtering performance, no adhesive, non-toxic and other characteristics. Non woven fabric has the characteristics of moisture resistance, breathability, flexibility, lightweight, non combustible, easy to decompose, non-toxic and non irritating, and rich color.
Different uses: SMS non-woven fabric is mainly used for medical and health labor protection products such as surgical gowns, surgical caps, protective clothing, hand sanitizers, handbags, etc. Non woven fabric is used for home decoration, wall coverings, tablecloths, bed sheets, bedspreads, etc.
Analysis of the Development Status of SMS Non woven Fabric Industry
With the continuous emergence of new technologies, the functions of non-woven fabrics are constantly improved. The future development of non-woven fabrics comes from their continuous penetration into other fields such as new industries and automobiles; At the same time, we will eliminate outdated and old equipment, produce world-class non-woven fabric products for masks that are functional, differentiated, and diversified, and move deeper into production by deeply processing the products to form product diversification and meet market demand.
According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, the production of basic raw materials and new products in China maintained growth in the first quarter of 2024, with non-woven fabric production increasing by 6.1%. Since the outbreak of the epidemic, there have been many companies that have shifted their focus to meet the demand for masks, including manufacturing giants such as Sinopec, SAIC GM Wuling, BYD, GAC Group, Foxconn, and Gree. The change in the market for non-woven fabrics used in masks, from difficult to obtain masks to supply recovery and price decline, is the result of a significant increase in domestic production capacity.
The non-woven fabric used in masks provides a sustainable direction for the world, not only improving people’s lives but also protecting the environment. If it were not for this, the rapidly developing Asia Pacific nonwoven industry may be plagued by resource scarcity and environmental degradation. If consumers and suppliers can form a joint force, and enterprises take innovation as the driving force, directly affecting the non-woven industry, improving human health, controlling pollution, reducing consumption, and maintaining the environment through non-woven, then a truly new type of non-woven market will be formed.
Data shows that in 2023, the overall output value of China’s mask industry reached 14.2 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.6%. Among them, the output value of medical masks was 8.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 12.5%. Affected by the pneumonia epidemic caused by novel coronavirus, the growth rate of the industry is expected to increase significantly in 2025.
Although many companies have switched to cross-border production, the shortage of upstream raw materials for meltblown non-woven fabrics cannot be solved in the short term. With the arrival of the resumption of work trend and the continuous fermentation of overseas epidemics, the short-term global mask shortage will continue.
From the perspective of the upstream of the industrial chain, upstream raw material production enterprises such as Dongguan LianSheng Nonwoven Technology Co., Ltd. benefit from the long-term rigid demand for masks in the non-woven fabric business, and the supply of meltblown non-woven fabric raw materials is in short supply.
Dongguan Liansheng Non woven Technology Co., Ltd. was established in May 2020. It is a large-scale non-woven fabric production enterprise integrating research and development, production, and sales. It can produce various colors of PP spunbond non-woven fabrics with a width of less than 3.2 meters from 9 grams to 300 grams.
