Nonwovens

Versatile Applications Across Healthcare Markets

Nonwovens are used anywhere softness, conformability, or fluid-handling are essential. Typical applications include: 

• Wound Care Dressings 
  Soft, breathable layers used in absorbent or protective dressings for acute and chronic wounds. 

• Wearable Medical Devices 
  Conformable backings and comfort layers for continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), biosensors, and patch-based devices. 

• Medical Tapes & Adhesive Constructions 
  Nonwoven carriers used in breathable or stretchable tapes that maintain adhesion without irritating the skin. 
• Drug Delivery Systems 
  Soft contact layers for patches or systems that require extended skin wear.
