Advantages
Traditional airlaid industry operates with 1 – 12 mm fibers and the traditional carding industry operates with 5 – 100 mm fibers. In both industries capacity will decrease as the fiber length increase.
Our CAFT technology operate with fibers in the length of 1 - 100 mm, thus covers both the mentioned industry standards and will maintain the capacity regardless of the fiber length - and CAFT can process homogeneous material as well as inhomogeneous materials.
This specification allows us to process traditional material and - more important – natural fibers or waste material at a high capacity, 2000 kg/h and up, unlike competing technologies.
Further, the final product range is broad - from millimeter thin products at 150 g/m2 to centimeter thick products at 8000 g/m2 – very versatile capabilities compared to competing technologies.
Traditional thermo-bonding technologies require 10 - 25 % expensive binding fibers versus our technology, which requires only 5 - 10 % due to our optimal mixing system.
Our SDIL fiber treatment technology secures efficient coverage of the fiber and generates a dust free material – compared to traditional fire retardant done with powder mix, which generates a very dusty material.
