Spunmelt Nonwoven Fabric (SMS, SMMS, SSMMS, SMMMS): Versatile, Durable, and High-Performance Material

Spunmelt nonwoven fabric is a high-quality fabric made using a combination of spunbond and meltblown technologies. The spunmelt process creates a multi-layered fabric that offers excellent strength, fluid resistance, breathability, and filtration properties. The variations of spunmelt fabric—SMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Spunbond), SMMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Meltblown-Spunbond), SSMMS (Spunbond-Spunbond-Meltblown-Meltblown-Spunbond), and SMMMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Meltblown-Meltblown-Spunbond)—offer increasingly higher layers and improved performance characteristics, making them suitable for a wide range of applications in industries such as healthcare, agriculture, hygiene, and industrial sectors.

Key Features

1. Superior Strength and Durability:

   • The SMS, SMMS, SSMMS, and SMMMS fabrics are multi-layered, providing enhanced strength and durability. These fabrics are ideal for applications that require resistance to tearing, abrasion, and heavy wear.

2. Excellent Filtration and Fluid Resistance:

   • The meltblown layer in the SMS and its variations (SMMS, SSMMS, SMMMS) gives the fabric high filtration efficiency and fluid resistance. This makes it particularly suitable for medical products like surgical gowns, masks, and other protective wear.

3. Breathability and Comfort:

   • Despite their durability, spunmelt fabrics remain lightweight and breathable, ensuring comfort in wearable applications such as medical gowns and hygiene products. The fabric allows air to flow through, minimizing the buildup of heat and moisture.

4. Versatility and Multi-Layer Design:

   • SMS fabrics can be designed in various combinations of layers to achieve the desired properties, from basic SMS with two spunbond layers and one meltblown layer, to more advanced structures like SMMS, SSMMS, and SMMMS, which offer enhanced fluid and particle barrier properties.

5. Eco-Friendly Options:

   • We offer spunmelt nonwoven fabrics made from recyclable and biodegradable polypropylene, helping businesses reduce their environmental impact and support sustainability efforts.
