Cellulose Fibre based Hygiene Products - Using Bio-based Superabsorbent Polymers and Sophisticated Fibre Geometry for Better Absorbency
Sanitary products, which are an integral part of daily life for millions of people around the world, include a wide range of opportunities for cellulose fibres. Among these, tampons are a common choice for menstrual hygiene. Despite their widespread use, the complex mechanisms of fluid absorption in tampons were not a priority for a long time and received little attention from researchers. This has now changed as research has identified the properties of cellulose fibres that have the greatest impact.

Cellulose Fibre Innovation of the Year 2024: Nominated Innovations Range from Resource-efficient and Recycled Fibres for Textiles and Building Panels to Geotextiles for Glacier Protection
Six award nominees present innovative and sustainable solutions for various industries in the cellulose fibre value chain. The full economic potential of the cellulose fibre industry will be introduced to a wide audience that will vote for the winners in Cologne (Germany), and online.
Year after year nova-Institute grants the “Cellulose Fibre Innovation of the Year” award in the context of the “Cellulose Fibres Conference”, that will take place in Cologne on 13 and 14 March 2024. In advance, the conferences advisory board nominated six remarkable products, including cellulose fibres from textile waste and straw, a novel technology for dying cellulose-based textiles and a construction panel as well as geotextiles. The innovations will be presented by the companies on the first day of the event. All conference participants can vote for one of the six nominees and the top three winners will be honoured with the “Cellulose Fibre Innovation of the Year” award. The Innovation award is sponsored by GIG Karasek (AT). |
