The third Conference on Nonwovens for High-Performance Applications offered information about the latest developments in new areas of application and production processes. Held in Prague in March, the conference included a presentation on the findings from two major market studies on nonwovens. Other topics included the use of nonwovens as automotive components for lightweighting and as substitutes for other materials including flexible reinforcements for composites and as highly efficient filter media. The growing commercial adoption of nanofiber layers and coatings was also discussed, as well as applications for spunmelt and spunlaced nonwovens beyond their established use in the disposable hygiene and wipes mass market.
