Chemical & Thermal Bonding
Our specialist material can resist chemical attacks that could otherwise deteriorate the integrity of your product. Such resistance stability to additives include softening agents, flavourings and humectants.
Chemical resistance fabric
Our scientists at Nonwovenn have configured a revolutionary fabric that controls the flow-rate of your active ingredient. This means your users can enjoy more, or less, of your painstakingly perfected flavour.

Controlled flavour release fabric
Our biodegradable fabric is constructed entirely from renewable biomass sources, such as vegetable fats and oils, cornstarch, and cellulosic materials. Biodegradable technology (viscose/PLA/PVOH/PBS/bamboo, binders, and natural bast fibres (including hemp, ramie, jute, flax, kenaf & nettle).
Biodegradable fabric
Our nonwoven lozenge product provides a secure casing for your flavoured contents. When the user chews the lozenge, the flavours are gently released to enhance the experience.
