Johns Manville is displaying a variety of products such as glass fibre nonwovens for luxury vinyl tiles and composites at the ongoing Techtextil show in Frankfurt, Germany. The company produces a wide range of technical nonwovens for building and construction, filtration, energy storage and composites at 11 facilities in Germany, the US and China.

“Luxury vinyl tiles are a modern flooring material that’s very popular. We have developed a couple of tailor-made glass fibre nonwovens for this application. Our products offer high dimensional stability in different thermal conditions and ensure a very good paste penetration thanks to their open structure,” said Martin Kleinebrecht, portfolio management and marketing leader at Johns Manville.

For the extremely dynamic field of composites, JM offers special glass fibre nonwovens that are successfully used to enhance the performance of stiff and light-weight components.

Besides those glass fibre-based products, JM is displaying three components for polyester (PET) nonwovens - Bico-polyester nonwovens that are used as filter media or as carriers for automotive cabin air filtration, a two-layered PET nonwoven for engine air intake, which combines extraordinary dust-holding capacity with high stiffness, and needled PET nonwovens, which are utilised both as highly resistant geotextiles as well as filtration products with excellent efficiency and burst-strength.
