Here’s your weekly recap—the most viewed news stories on our site for the week ended June 3, 2023.

KNH has successively developed biodegradable sanitary pads, panty liners and tampons. Apart from 100% cotton ones existing for a long time in the market, KNH introduces Bamboo sanitary products made from recyclable and eco-friendly materials this year.

For bamboo sanitary pads, skin-friendly spunlace fabric is used as its topsheet. Bamboo fiber itself has countless micropores with rapid absorption and good breathability. Further, bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world, which can grow up to 30 meters just in eight weeks, thus being easier to meet the consumption demand when compared to the cotton.

In other news, Freudenberg Performance Materials Apparel Europe (Freudenberg) has expanded its facility in Sant´Omero, Italy, into a competence center for finishing and coating apparel interlinings. Customers will benefit from faster and more flexible order processing. In the long term, they will also be able to count on products originating in Europe. The Competence Center was officially opened on May 26, 2023.
