Nonwoven Equipment for Hygiene Product Manufacturers

KSG Group has been designing and building nonwoven machinery for more than 30 years, with installations in over 40 countries. For hygiene producers that usually means one of two starting points. Some buyers want a full spunbond or SMS nonwoven line for lightweight coverstock and barrier layers. Others come from the staple-fibre side and need a carding and bonding line to produce absorbent core carriers and acquisition-distribution layers. We build for both, and we handle the whole job in-house, from line layout through installation and commissioning on the customer's floor.

What tends to matter to this audience is not headline speed alone but stable running at low web weights. Hygiene coverstock often lands in the 12 to 25 gsm range, and holding uniformity that light is where a lot of cheaper lines fall down. Our carding machines, cross lappers and dryers are specified around that reality, and the same engineering team that draws the layout is the team that shows up to start the line. That continuity is the point: one partner from first drawing to the day the line makes saleable product.

Because we manufacture the core machines ourselves, lead times and spare-part support stay under our control rather than scattered across a chain of subcontractors. When a customer in a new market needs a plant stood up quickly, we can commit to a schedule and hold it. That reliability is worth more than any single spec sheet to a factory that has downstream converting lines waiting on nonwoven supply.
