  • Challenges in Maintaining Healthcare Hygiene

    Healthcare environments demand strict hygiene standards to prevent contamination and reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infections. Maintaining consistent cleaning practices across busy medical settings can be challenging, particularly when surfaces, equipment and patient areas require frequent sanitisation.

    Healthcare professionals require cleaning solutions that are effective, easy to use and suitable for a wide range of applications, from patient hygiene to surface cleaning and equipment maintenance.

    Challenges in Maintaining Healthcare Hygiene

  • Engineering Wipe Materials for Healthcare Hygiene

    Healthcare hygiene wipes are engineered to deliver reliable cleaning performance while supporting infection prevention protocols in medical environments.

    Nonwoven wipe materials must offer high absorbency, durability and low linting to ensure efficient cleaning without leaving residues or fibres behind. At the same time, they must remain soft enough for applications involving skin contact or sensitive surfaces.

    By combining advanced nonwoven materials with specialist converting capabilities, we help supply healthcare facilities with wipes designed for demanding hygiene applications.

    Poor wipe performance can result in:
    • Ineffective surface cleaning
    • Cross-contamination risks
    • Residual lint or fibres on surfaces
    • Reduced infection control effectiveness
  • Our Hygiene Wipes Range

    • Skin contact wipes / BioTex range gathers all the wipes dedicated to skin contact. They are used in hospitals, nursing homes, medical offices for patients or practitioners’ hygiene, in the asbestos removal and nuclear (as shower towels), in spa and beauty salons (as hair towels, shower towels or make-up remover wipe). They are very soft on contact dry or wet and they have a high absorption capacity for efficient drying.

    • Food Contact Clearance lavettes / Lavetiss lavettes are widely used in the food industry, catering, kitchens, and general cleaning. The range is built around a variety of nonwoven lavettes to address all uses with various grammages and textures for a quick and efficient cleaning.

      The nonwoven microfiber Lavette replaces ideally knitted Microfiber with a better washing resistance and less lint.

      A variety of colors allows their use in HACCP (Hazard Analysis of Critical Control Points Principles) protocols.

       

      g_content_rows-repeater_items_title

    • General multi-use cleaning wipes / SorbAll are high loft nonwovens, very soft, mainly composed of cellulose fibers which gives them very high speed and absorption capacity. They are widely used as multiuse wipes in the food industry, collectivities, general industry but also for more specific applications like patient toilet, or single use bath towels.

    • Multi–use cleaning wipes, solvent resistant/ MultiClean products are multiuse cloth which are used both for dry and wet cleanings. Their high ratio of cellulose ensures a fast and high absorption. They are reinforced with a popylpropyene armature to guarantee a good resistance to heat and a very good mechanical and abrasion resistance. They are low lint and resistant to solvents.

      g_content_rows-repeater_items_title

    • Soft cleaning wipes, low particles, high absorption / Softcell products are dedicated to delicate applications which require flexibility, very low lint, and quick absorption. Its good flexibility in hand provides a good agility to get into corners allowing a precise cleaning.

      They resist major solvents, do not contain bonding agents nor chemicals, and are used in a wide range of professional applications. They absorb on average 5 to 6 times their weight in oil, solvent, or water.

       

      g_content_rows-repeater_items_title

    • HeavyDuty cleaning wipes, good resistance / HeavyDuty products are top of the line multiuse cloth, low lint, efficient both wet and dry for demanding wiping and cleaning. Their composition based on cellulose and polymer fibers confers a high absorption, good resistance, and good stretchability. They have great resistance to solvents.
