At Techtextil Frankfurt 2024, AUTEFA Solutions will current improvements in nonwoven expertise with a transparent deal with sustainability, together with vitality effectivity, fiber choice, life cycle administration and emission discount. As a number one provider of turnkey nonwoven programs and equipment, AUTEFA Solutions affords needle punching traces, aerodynamic internet forming traces, spunlace and thermobonding traces.

“Techtextil provides not only a platform for innovation and progress, but also a valuable opportunity to engage directly with customers. Through direct interaction, we not only learn about their current needs, but also lay the groundwork for future developments. We in particular are ready to highlight sustainable applications with our Airlay lines and demonstrate energy optimization in oven and dryer technology. In addition, we will emphasize our core competence in complete needle punching lines with specific features for geotextile, filtration, and artificial leather applications,” explains André Imhof, CEO, AUTEFA Solutions Austria and Switzerland.

The sustainable use of sources is a key problem. Nonwovens expertise originated from the idea of recycling to cut back manufacturing prices and course of textile waste and beforehand unusable supplies into cloth constructions. With rising environmental consciousness, there may be an rising demand for textile recycling options or the conversion of used textiles into new merchandise (upcycling).

Nonwoven traces that mechanically, thermally, or chemically consolidate fiber webs can course of nearly all mechanically and chemically recycled fibers. Fibrous supplies right down to granulate may also be processed. The uncooked materials is both from direct mechanical recycling or oblique mechanical recycling, e.g., utilizing fibers from spinning. Applications vary from synthetic leather-based, filter media, trunk linings and headliners to geotextiles, flooring coverings, insulation and soundproofing supplies, and hygiene merchandise.

The aerodynamic internet forming machine Airlay V21/R – K12 from AUTEFA Solutions is the versatile resolution for varied recycling potentialities. The aerodynamic precept ensures a three-dimensional fiber orientation and whole randomization. Airlay programs are characterised by highest product high quality, financial effectivity, and reliability. During the method, the fabric is opened right down to the person fiber, which permits excessive flexibility in fiber choice and offers an answer even for very quick fibers.

In precept, all identified fiber sorts and their blends will be processed. The design of the Airlay V21/R – K12 FUTURA permits simple opening and fast entry for cleansing and upkeep.

In mixture with the AUTEFA Solutions Stylus needle loom, the HiPerTherm thermobonding oven or the V-Jet FUTRA spunlace machine, AUTEFA Solutions affords nonwoven traces from a single supply. The merchandise manufactured with these traces, similar to linings and inside linings, cleansing and moist wipes, upholstery materials and insulation, will be produced in a real closed loop idea. Fibers are sometimes used as much as 4 instances in a product.

AUTEFA Solutions helps the ideas of the round economic system by optimizing your complete life cycle of textile fibers by recycling and reuse, thereby lowering useful resource consumption.
