Pearl-Embossed Wood Pulp Nonwoven for Wet Wipes

A soft, absorbent nonwoven fabric engineered specifically for wet wipe production. Made from a 60:40 wood pulp-to-viscose blend, it features a fine pearl embossing pattern that enhances texture and wiping performance while maintaining full wet strength.

Why Choose a 60/40 Wood Pulp and Viscose Blend?

The secret to a premium wet wipe lies in its fiber composition. By utilizing 60% wood pulp, the fabric achieves an outstanding liquid absorption capacity and a soft, natural feel. However, wood pulp alone has limited structural integrity when wet. To solve this, we incorporate 40% viscose to maintain fiber cohesion and boost wet tensile strength. This synergy ensures the wipe holds maximum moisture without tearing during extraction or vigorous use.

The Functional Advantage of Pearl Embossing

Our signature small pearl embossing pattern goes beyond aesthetics. The raised texture significantly increases the surface contact area, enhancing the wipe's ability to trap dirt, oil, and impurities without adding unnecessary bulk to the fabric. Furthermore, it provides a distinct, premium visual identity that differentiates your product from standard flat, unembossed nonwovens.

Conclusion: Qualified

Versatile Applications Across Industries

While our standard roll is manufactured at 45 gsm, our production line supports a highly adaptable basis weight range of 30–120 gsm. This flexibility allows the fabric to be tailored for various downstream applications:

• Baby & Personal Care Wipes: Completely odorless and zero-fluorescent for safe, repeated contact with sensitive skin. (Lighter weights recommended).
• Household Cleaning Wipes: Enhanced friction from the pearl pattern easily lifts surface dirt and spills. (Medium weights recommended).
• Heavy-Duty & Industrial Wipes: High tensile strength withstands aggressive scrubbing without linting or tearing. (Heavier weights recommended).

Q&A

Q: What does "point-break roll" mean for downstream converting?

A: Our rolls are point-bonded and perforated at set intervals. This means individual wipe sheets can be torn off cleanly by hand, which is the standard requirement for pop-up canister or roll-format wet wipe packaging. This ready-to-convert format reduces the need for additional die-cutting equipment on your production line.

Q: Is this material certified safe for skin-contact products?

A: Yes. Lab testing confirms that no fluorescent whitening agents are present and the fabric is entirely odorless (testing at 0 against a standard of ≤2). These are critical safety and quality benchmarks for substrates intended for direct, repeated skin contact.

Q: What does the pearl embossing pattern do functionally?

A: The small pearl pattern increases surface texture and contact area, which improves cleaning and wiping efficiency without adding bulk. It also gives the fabric a distinct visual identity compared to flat, unembossed nonwovens.

Q: Can the basis weight be adjusted for different wipe applications?

A: Yes. While this batch is manufactured at 45 gsm, the production line supports a basis weight range of 30–120 gsm, allowing the fabric to be tailored for lighter facial wipes up to heavier industrial or household wipes.

Q: How does the wet tensile strength hold up against the standard?

A: MD (machine direction) dry tensile strength tested at 34.9 N against a ≥30 N standard, and CD (cross direction) at 11.9 N against a ≥8 N standard - both comfortably passing, which indicates the fabric resists tearing during wet wipe dispensing and use.
