NIRI's CEO, Dr. Matthew Tipper, comments on how NIRI is helping companies develop the next wave of sustainable products, using airlaid technology: “With the EU Directive on single-use plastics, the nonwovens industry is focused on experimenting with processes that work towards increased sustainability”. “Manufacturers are exploring airlaid technologies as these use a high percentage of natural fibers—predominantly fluff pulp which is both cost-effective and sustainable, biodegradable and renewable.” Our clients come to us to develop their airlaid products on a small scale, which enables them to develop iteratively and accelerate their innovation and time to market.
