Spunlace Creped Nonwoven Fabric for Industrial & General Wiping

Unlike smooth spunlace materials, the controlled surface folds increase contact area, allowing the fabric to absorb liquids faster and capture oil, grease, and particulates more effectively. This structural advantage makes it particularly suitable for industrial wiping and daily cleaning applications where efficiency and durability are required.

The fabric is supplied in roll form and designed for further converting into wipes, sheets, or customized cleaning formats.

Spunlace Creped Nonwoven Fabric: Structure & Material Composition

Creped Surface Design in Spunlace Nonwoven Fabric

The creped texture is formed during the hydroentanglement and finishing process. Fine surface wrinkles create micro-channels that improve liquid uptake and wiping friction. Compared with flat spunlace fabrics, this structure helps reduce smearing when wiping oil or water-based contaminants.

Material Options for Spunlace Creped Nonwoven Fabric

This product is typically produced using a wood pulp / polyester blend, balancing absorbency and mechanical strength:

Wood pulp: enhances water and oil absorption

Polyester fiber: improves tensile strength, tear resistance, and dimensional stability

The material contains no chemical binders and relies entirely on spunlace water-jet entanglement for bonding.

Performance Characteristics of Spunlace Creped Nonwoven Fabric

• High absorbency: suitable for water, oil, and mixed liquids
• Improved wiping efficiency due to creped surface friction
• Low linting for cleaner wiping results
• Wet and dry strength stability, reducing breakage during use
• Compatible with solvents and detergents commonly used in industrial cleaning

These characteristics allow the fabric to perform consistently in both light-duty and heavy-duty wiping environments.

Typical Applications

Industrial Wiping

Machinery and equipment cleaning

Oil and grease removal

Janitorial and Maintenance wipes in manufacturing plants

Workshop and assembly line cleaning

General & Daily Cleaning

Household cleaning wipes

Commercial cleaning cloths

Disposable surface wipes

The fabric is suitable for further impregnation with cleaning solutions or used dry, depending on end-use requirements.

Manufacturing Control at Weston

Weston produces spunlace creped nonwoven fabric using controlled hydroentanglement lines. Fiber blending, water pressure, and creping parameters are adjusted to ensure consistent surface texture and mechanical performance across batches. Each production stage focuses on material stability rather than decorative appearance, ensuring suitability for downstream converting processes.

Frequently Asked Questions – Spunlace Creped Nonwoven Fabric

Q1: How is creped spunlace different from regular spunlace fabric?

Creped spunlace has a wrinkled surface that improves absorbency and wiping efficiency, especially for oil and heavy liquids.

Q2: Is this fabric suitable for oil-based wiping?

Yes. The creped structure helps trap oil and grease more effectively than smooth nonwoven fabrics.

Q3: Can the fabric be supplied in different weights and widths?

Yes. Basis weight, width, and roll dimensions can be customized according to your application.

Q4: Can this fabric be used with cleaning chemicals?

The fabric is compatible with common industrial detergents and solvents. Compatibility testing is recommended for specific formulations.
