Spunlace/Hydroentangled
Spunlace, also known as hydroentangled fabric, is a versatile nonwoven textile created by entangling fibers with high-pressure water jets, resulting in a soft, durable, and absorbent material.
About Spunlace/Hydroentangled
Spunlace fabric is produced through a wetlaid process where fibers, typically viscose and polyester, are entangled using jets of water. This method allows for the creation of a fabric that has a soft hand feel, high absorbency, and excellent drape. Due to its nonwoven nature, spunlace is often used in applications requiring a combination of strength and softness, such as medical textiles, wipes, and hygiene products.
