Ingeo Biopolymer in Hygiene Applications

News-Leading biopolymer and PLA manufacturer NatureWorks (Plymouth, MN, USA) has further expanded the performance attributes delivered by Ingeo biopolymer in hygiene applications with the introduction of Ingeo 6500D.

The new Ingeo solution offers increased softness and strength as well as improved fluid management when combined with optimized hydrophilic surface finish technology. As a certified renewably sourced and biobased material, Ingeo 6500D also meets the growing demand from brands and consumers for products made from more sustainable materials.

When combined with tailored topical treatments developed in partnership with fibre lubricant manufacturer Goulston Technologies (Monroe, NC, USA), the result is lighter, thinner absorbent hygiene products that offer improved fluid management and breathability for better skin health.

NatureWorks’ Ingeo biopolymer has a 62 % smaller carbon footprint than polypropylene from its manufacturing alone, offering a low carbon alternative to petrochemical based materials.
