Don & Low have developed a new range of nonwoven composite fabrics that combine spunbond nonwovens with innovative reflective foils and metallised films.

These new fabrics offer a range of strong, flexible and durable reflective nonwovens that can be utilised for a variety of functional and decorative purposes.

The benefits offered by these reflective composites include:

• a low emissivity, reflective surface that acts as a radiant barrier to improve thermal insulation either to improve heat retention or, alternatively to assist in keeping items cool
• allows the passage of water vapour (breathable) whilst, at the same time, being water repellent

This new range of reflective nonwoven composites can be used in a range of applications:

• As a flexible cover or wrap to keep items cool or, alternatively, keep them warm
• As a decorative reflective material, white on one side and reflective on the other

Established in 1792, Don & Low are manufacturers of Woven and Nonwoven polypropylene industrial textiles. The Company has been part of the Thrace Plastics Group, headquartered in Athens, Greece, since 1999.
