Bemliese™ Basics
Produced entirely from fine linter, the short fiber of the cotton boll that develops between its seeds and long, fibers, comprises about 10% of its weight, and would otherwise go unused.
The Starting Point - Cotton Linter
Smooth, soft, gentle touch of luxury, especially recommended for fine, sensitive skin. Multifunctional, spreads to cloth form for clean,
efficient make-up removal, folds for easy pat-on cologne application.
Unrivaled Production Technology
Produced by the world's only process technology for mutually adhering continuous cellulosic filaments - key to the Bemliese™ binder-free 100% cellulose nonwoven fabrics. Production facility certified under ISO 9001.
The Bemliese™ Production Process
1. Linter Refining
Multistage refining and purification of the cotton linter by steaming and filtration.
2. Linter Dissolution
Highly purified linter dissolved in a fine, pure, specially formulated spinning solution.
3. Filament Spiinning
Extrusion of the spinning solution from multi-orifice dies, to obtain multiple continuous filaments
4. Nonwoven Sheet Formation
Layering of the mutually self-bonding continuous filaments onto a mesh conveyor, to obtain nonwoven sheet.
5. Rinsing, Drying, Roll Winding
Mesh conveyor transport of the nonwoven sheet through water rinse and thermal drying, followed by take-up and roll winding.
The result is the fine, pure Bemliese™ nonwoven fabric, produced and processed in a clean plant environment, with a broad range of fabric patterns for optimal performance in specific fields of application.
