Spunbond fabric is a type of non-woven fabric that is widely used in various industries. The basic material of spunbond is polypropylene fiber, which is specially processed to produce a strong yet lightweight fabric.
The advantages of spunbond fabric include being waterproof, lightweight, comfortable to use, and has good filtration capabilities. In addition, this fabric is also economical and available in various thickness options measured in grams per square meter (gsm).
Each level of thickness has different functions and uses:
- Spunbond >25 gsm. This thinnest type of spunbond is usually used for disposable medical masks as it is lightweight and sufficient for basic filtration purposes.
- Spunbond 25 – 50 gsm. This thickness is suitable for use as dust bags or protective wrapping of products such as bags and shoes before being packed in boxes. In addition, it can also be used as seed or seedling bags.
- Spunbond 50 – 75 gsm. With better strength and durability, spunbond in this range is often used to make goodie bags or laundry covers. Aside from being easy to sew, this material also does not tear easily and is environmentally friendly, making it a favorite choice for promotional or event purposes.
- Spunbond 100 gsm and above. This thickest type of spunbond is perfect for applications that require extra strength such as engineering and lightweight construction. The material is sturdy, strong, and has a stiffer texture making it ideal for products that require high durability.
Understanding the different grammages of spunbond fabric is important so that you can choose the most suitable type for your production, promotional or daily needs. By choosing the right grammage, the product will be more functional, durable, and cost-efficient.
