TPU Elastic Non-Woven Film: Barrier Properties with Textile Feel

How TPU elastic non-woven film combines liquid barrier protection with fabric-like comfort

TPU elastic non-woven film bridges the gap between conventional films and textile fabrics. It provides the liquid barrier and strength of a film with the breathability, drape, and comfort of a non-woven.

Film vs. Fabric: Understanding the Difference

While often used interchangeably, "film" and "fabric" describe different structures:

  • Film: Continuous, non-porous sheet with uniform thickness
  • Non-woven fabric: Fibrous web with void spaces and porosity
  • Hybrid structures: Microporous films or film-fabric laminates
