AIRYFA™ is a high-performance nonwoven that is gentle on skin,
simultaneously materializing softness and strength. By capitalizing
on the company’s proprietary polyolefin spinning technology and
producing this thin textile with a hollow structure that is
characterized by a superior soft feeling and evenness, Mitsui
Chemicals has simultaneously realized both softness and strength,
which the conventional technology could not achieve.
This is an eco-friendly nonwoven that takes global environmental
issues into consideration since the thin textile with a hollow
structure reduces the amount of plastic used as a raw material. The
name AIRYFA™ is intended to represent airy (very light and soft)
fabric.
Mitsui Chemicals has developed various high-performance
nonwovens, such as bulky and highly flexible nonwovens, nonwovens
with excellent elasticity, and the new nonwoven AIRYFA™ for
sanitary goods, including disposable diapers. To reinforce its
leadership in Asia, Mitsui Chemicals, as a solution provider
capable of meeting customers’ requests for quality improvement,
will continue to contribute to an enhanced Quality of Life (QOL)
while further developing new high-performance nonwovens.
