The process delivers outstanding material quality for personal care, household, and industrial applications -gentle, effective, and designed to protect what matters most: you and the environment

Wetlace™ hybrid technology for high‑performance, plastic‑free wipes

ANDRITZ provides fully engineered production lines tailored specifically for carded‑pulp (CP) processes, integrating all core technologies required for reliable and high‑quality wipe manufacturing. The Wetlace™ hybrid approach combines the strengths of wetlaid forming with drylaid processes including hydroentanglement, creating a unique nonwoven structure with superior performance.

This configuration enables the smooth processing of natural fibers, such as wood pulp and viscose, resulting in high‑performance, plastic‑free wipes that support the global movement away from synthetic materials. Manufacturers benefit from stable production, consistent quality, and a technology platform designed to meet both today’s and tomorrow’s sustainability demands.

Its compact construction, combined with exceptional distribution and flow control, ensures consistently accurate web formation and spot‑on performance throughout the Wetlace™ hybrid process. The result: reliable, efficient production of next‑generation eco‑friendly wipes with outstanding material quality.
