The secret to sanitary pad comfort: How do nonwoven suppliers define quality?

Have you ever thought that the core of a lightweight and breathable sanitary pad depends on the technical strength of the nonwoven supplier? As a professional nonwoven supplier, we have witnessed many brands' allergy complaints from users due to the wrong choice of raw materials. Today, we will start from the application of nonwovens in sanitary napkins to show the direct relationship between material science and user experience.

1.why do we say "choose the right nonwoven = win half the market"?
The "invisible battlefield" of sanitary napkins is the top layer and the backing film:

Surface hydrophilic nonwovens: 0.3 seconds of rapid penetration and dry (click test standards), poor quality materials are prone to cause friction erythema;

Back membrane hydrophobic nonwoven: must pass 10kPa pressure test (quote 1), otherwise the risk of side leakage skyrocketed;

Antibacterial and bactericidal: Antibacterial sanitary napkins can have good antibacterial and bactericidal effects;

Preventing odors: Breathability is excellent and can reduce the generation of odors;

Safe and comfortable: No fluorescent whitening agents or other chemicals, no need to worry about the safety ofantibacterial sanitary napkins.

2.Sanitary napkins with nonwovens “golden combination table”

Part	Material Type	Core Function	Common Errors
Surface layer	Hydrophilic nonwoven fabric	Instantaneous suction anti-reverse osmosis	Gram weight is too high leading to stuffiness
Conductive layer	3D embossed nonwoven fabric	Uniformly diffuse liquid	Unreasonable pattern design causes side leakage
Back film	3D embossed nonwoven fabric	Leakage prevention and breathability	No antibacterial treatment breeds odor

3.Avoid the 3 major “invisible minefields” of non-woven procurement

Blindly pursuing by low price: a new brand for the use of recycled nonwoven products, triggering collective skin allergy claims;

Neglect of environmental adaptation: the export of tropical areas need to increase the anti-mold coating (customized solutions);

Technical communication breakdown: broken chain of engineer's suggestion → procurement execution → factory production

4.Future Trend: When Sanitary Napkin Meets “Smart Nonwoven”
Temperature regulation: phase change materials embedded in nonwoven fabrics to relieve abdominal discomfort during menstruation;

Ecological upgrading: 40% annual growth in demand for biodegradable sanitary raw materials.

Conclusion
From the lab to the hands of consumers, Sk care helps you redefine women's health experience with material science.

FAQ
Q1: Is the softer the surface nonwoven fabric of sanitary napkin the better?
A: Not absolutely! Excessive softness may reduce the speed of infiltration, so it is recommended to refer to the tactile-functional balance guide.

Q2: How can I tell if a supplier's nonwoven is excel in quality?
A: It generally have the test for SGS certificate and so on.

Q3: Will environmentally friendly nonwovens affect the absorbency of sanitary napkins?
A: The new generation of corn fiber nonwoven products has achieved a 12% increase in absorbency, see the topic of sustainable materials.
