Groz-Beckert will present latest innovations at CINTE Techtextil China

EcoStar – the new universal felting needle for all requirements – is a true highlight in the Nonwovens sector and the first result of the far-reaching innovation initiative. In comparison with standard needles it offers users among others, longer service life combined with reduced energy consumption. Internal testing has produced promising results, proving the numerous different benefits of the new EcoStar needle. It can be used universally for all applications. Fibre transportation takes place with the same efficiency but with a lower penetration force. Other customer benefits are an extended service life and reduced energy expenditure. A further innovation will be the new HyTec® D Jet Strip for hydroentangled products.

Another focus in Shanghai will be process-water analysis and proper cleaning of Jet Strips.
