Spunmelt nonwoven fabric is a versatile and durable material produced through the combination of two main processes: spunbond and meltblown. This manufacturing technique results in a multi-layered fabric that combines the strength of spunbond fabric with the filtration and liquid resistance properties of meltblown fabric. As a result, spunmelt nonwoven fabric is used in a wide range of applications, including medical, hygiene, agricultural, automotive, and industrial sectors. The variations of spunmelt nonwoven fabric—SMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Spunbond), SMMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Meltblown-Spunbond), SSMMS (Spunbond-Spunbond-Meltblown-Meltblown-Spunbond), and SMMMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Meltblown-Meltblown-Spunbond)—offer varying levels of performance to meet specific needs.
