This will deliver optimal absorption and lotion load for high-quality biodegradable wipes and uses fewer resources than comparable carded mono-structures. The technology will be able to produce the entire sustainable nonwoven material in-line, while enabling hydro-embossing to increase softness and improve cleaning power.<\/p>\n<p>Mondi\u2019s vision is to contribute to a better world, and its focus lies in producing innovative products that are sustainable by design. \u201cThe innovative technology means we can produce 100% biodegradable, high-performance nonwovens for wipes that are more accessible, and we are looking forward to introducing this to the market.\u201d explained Kelly Wright, Mondi\u2019s product expert for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mondigroup.com\/en\/products-and-solutions\/personal-care-components\/\" target=\"_blank\">Personal Care and Components<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The new line is set to be fully operational by 2021.
