THE RIGHT WIPE MATTERS

The performance of your wipe affects the performance of your process  

In critical cleaning environments, cleaning products need to work first time. When they don't, the cost shows up in ways that are easy to miss:

Cleaning time eats into production time
Invisible cost-in-use builds through overuse, waste and lost time
Operators use more wipes than they should need to
It becomes harder to avoid audit non-conformances
Low-quality materials tear, snag or leave fibres behind
Distributors are left handling avoidable product complaints

Leaving rags behind for a world-leading MRO provider

QUALITY ASSURED

Advanced technology for improved performance  

The proprietary Sontara® process uses high-pressure water jets to entangle fibres into a strong, absorbent web without added binders, chemicals or adhesives. As fibres are washed during formation, the material delivers very low lint and excellent purity.

Manufactured in a controlled environment with high air quality standards, Sontara® offers dependable mechanical strength, superior absorbency and a more sustainable production approach for specialist wiping applications.
