"FIBRELLA® Strata is a combination of everything you need for effective cleaning with excellent opacity at a lower basis weight. Due to its excellent stability and great strength profile, it is perfect for easy converting and one-at-a-time dispensing, saving time and money. Its unique tri-layer structure makes it stand out on the market", explains Tara Millar, Manager, Category Management, Americas.


Versatile high-performance

FIBRELLA® Strata is an innovative product designed for the Baby, Personal Care, Household, Medical, and Industrial markets in mind. Although suitable for a multitude of industries and applications, FIBRELLA® Strata offers especially for the Baby market a premium nonwoven with a high-definition patterning in a multi-layer structure while delivering exceptional softness and cleaning performance.

Ease of conversion

FIBRELLA® Strata´s composite structure makes it ideal to convert, as the structure helps provide a better MD:CD (machine direction to cross direction) ratio compared to many standard spunlace products. It also can maintain the pattern when wet to help retain its cleaning performance and bulk softness.
