Capabilities include, depending on the fabric: |

Needlepunching
Needled nonwovens depend on the precise action of
thousands of barbed needles to physically interlock
cross-lapped layers of well blended and carded fibers
to create materials with particular properties.
Chemical and thermobonding
With these processes, specific characteristics can be
added to nonwovens. With chemical bonding, after
fibers are processed into a web or fabric, the material
is saturated in a chemical bath and then dried and
heat-cured. Thermobonding may be used to further
adhere fibers that have been processed into a web or
fabric by adding heat and pressure, creating a unique
bond throughout the textile.
Wool felting
Wool's unique wicking ability, moisture and vibration absorption properties, temperature,
resilience, and
durability ensure continued demand for wool and
wool-blend products. National Nonwovens is the
largest manufacturer of felted wool in the U. S. today,
and has the on-site fabrication capabilities to meet
customer requirements pertaining to size, thickness,
SAE felt standards, strength, hardness, density, color
and other properties.
Finishing
National Nonwoven customers are offered a full range
of finishing options in-house. Atmospheric and pressure dyeing, exact color matching,
pressing and calendering, singeing, sanding, and glazing are but a few of the choices
available. Other treatments include anti-bacterial, flame-resistance, mildew proofing,
water proofing, and moth proofing.
