Exciting Debut of VEOCEL™'s Lyocell Fibers at WOW 2025
At the upcoming World of Wipes (WOW) 2025, VEOCEL™ is set to make a significant impact with its Lyocell fibers for enhanced cleaning. This innovative product promises to redefine the standards for cleaning and disinfecting wipes.
Introducing a Sustainable Cleaning Solution
VEOCEL™ Lyocell fibers are the latest advancement in environmentally responsible cleaning products. These fibers are derived from wood-based raw materials, providing a much-needed alternative to fossil-based synthetics. The transition to these sustainable fibers aligns with global efforts to reduce plastic waste.
Optimum Cleaning Performance
Designed for high-performance applications, VEOCEL™ Lyocell fibers enhance both the efficiency and effectiveness of cleaning products. The engineering behind these fibers allows for superior liquid distribution, minimizing drips and optimizing cleaning control. As a result, each wipe can potentially cover double the surface area compared to traditional options, making cleaning processes markedly more efficient.
Compatibility with Disinfectants
One standout feature of VEOCEL™ Lyocell fibers is their compatibility with active disinfectant ingredients such as quaternary ammonium compounds. While other cellulosic fibers often necessitate complex chemical treatments for similar functionality, VEOCEL™ fibers remain effective with proper raw material selection and optimized production techniques, paving the way for broader use in cleaning applications.
Durability and Stability
These innovative fibers also boast excellent wet strength and form stability, ensuring that they maintain their integrity even at lower weights. This durability makes them ideal for various environments, from household cleaning to institutional and industrial usage.
Commitment to Environmental Standards
All VEOCEL™ Lyocell fibers are biodegradable and produced through a closed-loop process that emphasizes resource efficiency. This commitment to low emissions and environmental standards ensures that the Enhanced Cleaning variant meets both technical performance and sustainability requirements.
Empowering Customers
Patricia A. Sargeant, the Executive Vice President of Nonwovens at Lenzing AG, expressed enthusiasm about launching the VEOCEL™ Lyocell fibers, stating that they empower customers to choose sustainable fiber options for cleaning and disinfecting wipes.
