What is Non-Woven? 

Unlike traditional textiles you may know (such as the fabric in your clothes), non-woven material is neither woven (with a warp and weft) nor knitted.

Non-woven is a web of fibers that are consolidated together. The major advantage of this structure is its versatility. By overcoming weaving constraints, we can create technical materials with specific properties (absorbency, filtration, insulation, resistance) more quickly and often more economically.

Our Technology: Needle-punching Consolidation 

In the world of non-wovens, several methods exist for bonding fibers (chemical, thermal, hydraulic). We have chosen the mechanical consolidation route, also known as Needle-punching.

Eco Technilin
  • The Principle: Thousands of needles equipped with barbs (small hooks) penetrate the fiber mat at very high speed.
  • The Process: As they enter and exit the material, these barbs carry the fibers and interlock them vertically, creating fiber bridges between the surfaces.
  • Why Needle-punching?
    • Resistance
    • Ecology
    • Stability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is EcoTechnilin's technical expertise?

EcoTechnilin masters the entire natural fibre transformation chain into technical composite materials. From the selection and processing of flax, hemp or kenaf fibres to the production of dry reinforcements and PP thermoplastic semi-products, our know-how is grounded in rigorous industrial processes and recognised R&D expertise.

What manufacturing processes does EcoTechnilin use for its composites?

We use transformation processes specifically adapted to natural fibres, including needlepunched nonwoven manufacturing, UD (unidirectional) mats, and hybrid fibre/PP structures. These technologies produce lightweight, rigid and recyclable materials that meet the most demanding specifications in the automotive, construction and sports industries.

How does EcoTechnilin ensure the quality and consistency of its composite materials?

Quality is at the heart of our industrial approach. EcoTechnilin relies on strict controls at every production stage, mechanical and physical material characterisation tools, and close collaboration with clients to tailor the performance of bio-based composites to the specific constraints of each application.
