Key Highlights of Filantro First:

● 7200 MT Production Facility: Filantro First proudly operates India’s first production facility capable of producing 7200 metric tons of cross-lapped spunlace non-woven fabric with an impressive 3.2-meter width.

● Isotropic Strength: Their cross-lapped spunlace fabric boasts isotropic properties, providing consistent strength in all directions—a testament to their cutting-edge technology.

● Central to our innovation is the ability to deliver increased thickness without compromising the inherent strength of the wipe. Through meticulous engineering and advanced manufacturing processes, we have achieved a remarkable feat: providing equivalent thickness and water holding capacity in a 40GSM fabric as compared to a conventional 45GSM parallel fabric. Moreover, our technology enables the replication of the same thickness found in a 35GSM fabric within the confines of a 40GSM structure.The implications of this breakthrough are profound. Notably, the visual presentation of wipe packets is markedly improved, projecting a superior aesthetic appeal to consumers. Through the optimization of material utilization and manufacturing efficiencies, we have realized a significant cost saving of 14.56% compared to traditional parallel fabric configurations. This reduction in production costs translates into tangible benefits for both manufacturers and end-users alike, fostering a competitive edge in today’s marketplace.
