What is Non Woven Tape?

Non woven Tape is flexible porous products consisting of one or more fibre layers. The separate fibres may either be preferentially oriented in one direction or may be deposited in a random manner.

They are bonded by chemical, thermal or mechanical processes into textile products. Non-woven Tapes  are mainly planar structures. This relatively young branch of the textile industry has expanded enormously after the second world-war because of the high production rates and the resulting cost savings.

Non-woven tape is a multi-purpose adhesive tape. This tape has a non-woven texture and is permeable, where water and sweat can easily escape.

Non-woven tape is a type of adhesive tape that is made from a non-woven fabric backing and coated with an adhesive on one side. Non-woven Tapes  are made from fibers that are bonded together through a process that does not involve weaving, resulting in a fabric that is more porous, breathable, and flexible than woven fabrics.

Non-woven adhesive tapes are used in a variety of applications, including wound care, surgical procedures, and medical device fixation. They are popular in the healthcare industry because they are breathable, gentle on the skin, and can conform to different shapes and contours. Non-woven adhesive tapes are also used in sports medicine to prevent and treat injuries, as well as in the construction industry for sealing and bonding applications.

Contemporary non-woven fabric dates to the early 1930s. At that time, a few textile companies began experimenting with bonded materials as a way of utilizing cotton waste. The first commercial production of the products now called non-wovens began in 1942 in the United States in an effort to produce fabric directly from fibres. The market for non-woven products has experienced tremendous growth and has potential for more.

Nonwovens may be classified as either disposable or durable goods. Disposable or non durable, nonwovens include such one-time use products as diapers, medical dressings, household wipes, and disposable protective clothing. Durable goods are used for apparel interfacing, automobile headliners, road underlayment, and carpets.
