CIDPEX names AHC as top wet wipes manufacturer in China

December 06, 2021 - China

The 28th China International Disposable Paper Expo (CIDPEX), one of the largest global disposable hygiene exhibitions, has awarded and given recognition to American Hygienics Corporation (AHC) as one of the largest wet wipes manufacturers in China. AHC is one of the largest manufacturers of wet wipes in Asia with two manufacturing facilities.

AHC company specialises in contract manufacturing and private label wet wipes, including baby wipes, healthcare wipes, medical wipes, personal wipes, household wipes, industrial wipes, automotive wipes, pet wipes, and baby diapers. AHC inaugurated its Zhejiang brand new state-of-the-art plant in November of 2019 right when the pandemic started. This posed great opportunities in product needs and immense challenges in execution of the new manufacturing site. This new facility was instrumental for AHC in fulfilling major shortages in the wipes market, the company said in a media statement.

“All dealings in the supply chain were directly between CEO to CEO; it all came down to relationships and reputation in order to secure spunlace nonwovens. I had to personally meet with each of the CEOs of our suppliers to ensure that AHC maintained their supply commitments, our suppliers also only prioritise materials to primary long-term A-list partners only. The Covid-19 pandemic placed immense pressure on the entire supply chain throughout any sector that needed nonwovens. During the thick of this pandemic, AHC was able to secure significant capacities of non-woven enabling them to quickly and promptly cover major supply shortages in the market,” said Nilesh Parmar, CEO and founder of AHC.
