Products

Jacob Holm products are all extensively tested for quality and hygiene by our own quality engineering and R&D staff. While we already offer a wide range of products, we are always open to suggestions and enquiries regarding new developments or needs. Contact our marketing and sales department for more information.

Flat
There are plain fabrics with very uniform aspect and properties, either from blends of up to four fibers, or 100 % of one fiber - typically polyester, polypropylène or viscose. 

Multi-Layered
Produced on line by feeding the cards with different fibers, to achieve up to three distinct layers. Useful for side-to-side differences in roughness (see below), and liquid management for hygiene and wiping products.

Rough n’ Soft™

Developed within our R&D group, Jacob Holm has trade marked and patented the Rough n² Soft process and product. The fabric exhibits a rough and a soft side, and is available in a range of colors and degrees of roughness. The material is used for home cleaning, cosmetic and industrial applications.


Composite
With unwind capability, we are able to incorporate scrims, spunbonds, wovens, knits etc... in the spunlace process, to radically change fabric properties, particularly with regard to strength ans stability.

 

Dispersible
This refers specifically to the characteristic of the fabric to disperse into individual fibers when flushed down the toilet. By contrast, flushability only refers to the fabric being capable of being flushed through the entire system without causing a blockage. This is more dependent on the overall size of the product, and disposal problems can still occur downstream. We have developed fabrics which are strong enough to perform well in which then disperse when flushed. These are 100 % cellulose and are therefore also fully biodegradable.

Bio-Product
We offer a range of fabrics made from renewable resource raw materials. These include blends of viscose, lyocell, cotton and polylactic acid (PLA) fibers.

Embossed
We have both hydro- and thermo-embossing capability. This permits a range of options to tailor patterns according to client needs. Jacob Holm has focused on optimizing production parameters to achieve outstanding clarity at competitive speeds.


Apertured
Both coarse and fine apertures are available. As well as improved aesthetic, the hole patterns improve cleaning efficiency for both personal and home care applications, due to improved capillarity, abrasion and dirt holding capacity.


Printed
Unlimited range of colors and designs to enhance aesthetics and brand recognition.


Laminated
Through an extensive partner network, we can offer added functions, such as moisture barrier, water repellency and coloration.


Special Fibers
Jacob Holm continuously evaluates new introductions from our worldwide list of fiber suppliers. The current range includes:

Viscose, Tencel (Lyocell), Polyester (PET), Cotton, Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene (PE), Polyactic Acid (PLA), Bi-Component (PP / PET or PET / coPET), Microfiber Splitable : Poly Amide (PA) / PET or PP / PE),  Flame-retardant Viscose.
