Non-woven fabric is a sheet-like or web-like fibrous material produced directly, bypassing the spinning and weaving steps characteristic of traditional textile manufacturing.
Its defining characteristic is that the fibers are bonded together-using mechanical, chemical, or thermal methods-to form a planar structure with specific strength and stability. This material is widely used because it transcends the limitations of traditional textiles, which require the interlacing of warp and weft threads, enabling the efficient, low-cost production of materials with specialized functions.
