Texart is essentially a reinforced non-woven swab, that combines woven and non-woven technologies in a single product.
It consists of two layers of spunlace non-woven material, widely used in the medical market, and a textile net in between. The three layers are sealed together by ultrasonics.
The wrinkled surface of the swab increases the absorption capacity, whilst the interior textile net increases the resistance. The final product becomes compact, but very soft, with a spongy feeling in dry or wet state and very low linting properties.
Texart is patented medical fabric that combines the best of woven and non-woven technologies used in the medical area. It was developed in order to meet the definition of the ideal swab.
