Medical and Hygiene
Medical and Hygiene
Virgin PP Spunbond for single-use medical and hygiene converting
Manufactured using 100% virgin polypropylene with no calcium carbonate fillers, chemical binders, or recycled content for medical and hygiene grade production.
Engineered for applications requiring cleanliness, low linting performance, stable GSM control, and consistent converting reliability across demanding production environments.
GSM Range
9 to 80 GSM
Typical Widths
1.6m, 2.2m
Medical and Hygiene Applications
Engineered for medical and hygiene converting applications requiring softness, dimensional stability, fluid management performance, and consistent batch quality across high speed production environments.
Hygiene pad cover stock
9 to 20 gsmLowest GSM grades, hydrophilic finish for rapid fluid transfer through to absorbent core
Surgical masks and N95 respirators (facing layers)
18 to 30 gsmOuter and inner spunbond facing layers in SMS construction. Lightweight, soft, and dimensionally stable for high-speed mask converting equipment.
Wound care covers
20 to 35 gsmVery lightweight, non-adherent, gentle contact with skin
Surgical drapes and gowns
25 to 50 gsmLightweight, soft against skin, fluid barrier properties required for sterile field applications
Disposable bedding and isolation covers
30 to 60 gsmMid-range weight, soft enough for patient contact, sufficient integrity for single-use bed and trolley covers
Medical protective apparel
40 to 80 gsmHeavier weight for full-body protective garments, needs tensile strength and barrier performance

Why Medical and Hygiene Manufacturers Choose Greatech
For medical and hygiene applications, consistency, cleanliness, and material integrity are non negotiable. While many spunbond manufacturers in the market reduce costs through calcium carbonate filler blends, chemical binders, or inconsistent raw material sourcing, Greatech maintains a strict no compromise approach for all medical and hygiene grade production.
Our medical and hygiene fabrics are manufactured using 100% virgin polypropylene with no calcium carbonate fillers, no chemical binders, and no recycled content. That commitment is critical in applications where contamination risk, batch variability, inconsistent tensile performance, and poor traceability can create serious downstream issues for converters and end users alike.
Using pure virgin polypropylene allows us to achieve more consistent fibre bonding, cleaner fabric formation, stable GSM control, and reliable converting performance across demanding production environments. The result is a softer, cleaner, low linting fabric with dependable batch to batch consistency.
Available with either hydrophilic or hydrophobic treatment, our spunbond nonwoven fabric can be tailored for fluid acquisition, distribution, filtration, and barrier layer applications. The fibre composition and production process are specifically suited to skin contact and hygiene focused end uses where purity, reliability, and manufacturing consistency are essential.
