eSUN’s PLA Air Through Non-woven Fabric represents a significant advancement in eco-friendly materials, combining sustainability with high performance.
Product Overview
This non-woven fabric is crafted from polylactic acid (PLA) bi-component fibers featuring a sheath-core structure. The outer sheath has a low melting point, allowing it to bond fibers together during the hot air-through process, while the inner core maintains structural integrity. This results in a fabric that is soft, breathable, and durable without the need for chemical adhesives.
