In-depth analysis of the industrial wet wipes industry

Non-woven fabric is the most important raw material for wet wipes. Non-woven fabric, also known as non-woven fabric, is a kind of fabric formed without spinning and weaving, mainly through the textile staple fiber or filament orientation or random arrangement, forming a fiber network structure, and then reinforced by mechanical, hot adhesive or chemical methods, with moisture-proof, breathable, flexible, light, flame retardant, non-toxic and tasteless, low price, recyclable and other characteristics, can be used in different industries, such as sound insulation, heat insulation, electric heating sheets, masks, clothing, medical, filling materials, etc.
In recent years, with the rapid development of China's non-woven fabric industry, China has become the world's largest producer and consumer of non-woven fabrics, and the industrial scale has expanded rapidly. Especially in 2020, driven by the surge in demand from the epidemic, China's non-woven fabric production rose sharply, but it fell back in 2021. Data show that in 2021, China's non-woven fabric output will be 8.205 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 6.6%.
At present, the general standard for industrial wipes in China is only the national standard of GB27728-2011 "Industrial Wipes", and the classification of industrial wipes is only divided into several categories, such as industrial wipes for human bodies and industrial wipes for objects, among which there is no classification and definition of disinfection industrial wipes. Most of the "disinfection industrial wipes" on the market are self-formulated enterprise standards, although there may be certain disinfection effect provisions in the standard, but relying on industrial wipes disinfection, the wet wipes industry as a whole seems to be quite unreliable.
Industrial wipes are moist paper towels that are used to wipe the skin. According to the professional classification of industrial wipes, they are divided into three categories: ordinary industrial wipes, sanitary industrial wipes, and disinfection industrial wipes. The definition is similar, mainly because there are strict requirements for technical indicators. The industrial wipes on the market can be roughly divided into two categories, one is that they have been disinfected, but cannot disinfect other items, which contain skin care ingredients and can only be used for skin moisturizing maintenance. The other type is disinfection industrial wipes that are not only disinfected themselves, but also disinfect other items, which can be used for disinfection or sterilization of skin abrasions, scratches, etc. According to the use, it can be divided into four types: baby industrial wipes, personal care industrial wipes, cleaning industrial wipes, and functional industrial wipes. Therefore, when purchasing industrial wipes, you must see the function and positioning of industrial wet wipes.
