The Nonwovens Institute

The Intermediate Nonwovens Short Course provides attendees with a generalized overview of nonwoven production processes and end-product applications. The course covers the fundamental chemical and physical make-up of nonwovens, the properties of materials used in making nonwovens, and the manufacturing processes used to produce nonwovens. This course offers a balance of in-the-classroom learning at INDA…

The Spunbond Technology Short Course combines classroom learning with hands-on activities in NWI’s state-of-the-art fabrication and testing labs to provide attendees a fundamental understanding of the process of forming spunbond webs. The course focuses on the importance of controlling structure-property-process relationships to optimize spunbond materials for the requirements of the application. The course will cover…

The Carded Nonwovens Technology Short Course combines classroom learning with hands-on activities in NWI’s state-of-the-art fabrication and testing labs to provide attendees a fundamental understanding of the process of forming carded nonwoven webs. The course covers fibers and materials, the structure of nonwovens and how one measures properties such as formation, uniformity, fiber orientation, etc.…

The Fiber and Filament Extrusion Fundamentals Short Course provides attendees an understanding of the critical variables and process parameters required to optimize extrusion processes for meltblown, spunbond and carded staple-fiber nonwovens. Upon completing the course, attendees will have a comprehensive understanding of fiber and filament extrusion-based nonwoven products and processes, including raw material selection, polymer…
