Zetaloft+ as a sustainable alternative for foam in upholstered furniture

Tenowos Zetaloft+ is a new type of sustainable volume nonwoven. Due to its numerous advantageous properties, this innovative material is very well suited as a foam substitute.

Conventional volume nonwovens have a fiber orientation in X or Y direction. The special feature of Zetaloft+ is that the fibers are oriented in the Z direction.

And this ensures particularly good properties, such as very good resilience, etc.

All cardable fibers mixed with at least 5% binder fibers can be used as fiber material. Natural fibers such as flax, kenaf, cotton and wool can also be processed with the addition of a suitable binder fiber.

Depending on the fibers used, different properties of the volume nonwoven fabric result, depending on the application and the customer's wishes. A wide variety of fibers can be used on our lines to produce Zetaloft+ articles, including various natural fibers.

Thicknesses: 10 - 65 mm
Grammages: 200 - 2000 g/m²
Raw densities: 10 - 80 kg/m³

Depending on the thickness and volume weight, both as a sheet or rolled.

Width: 200 cm
Length: 150 cm

The plate dimensions can also be adjusted individually. In this case, it must be taken into account that they are still easy to handle on the part of TENOWO, i.e. that they fit into the machine width. A maximum usable width of 220 cm must be taken into account.

Cuts and also stamped parts (e.g. circular or oval) according to desired format are possible on request.

We have already been able to successfully place various products in the high-priced furniture segment on the market. Further products in the hospital furniture segment are currently in the final test phase, e.g. patient couches for examinations, adjustable chairs in treatment areas such as chemotherapy and dialysis, on which patients spend a longer period of time during treatment.

We will be happy to send you DIN A4 samples of different qualities for an initial pre-selection so that you can get a first impression of our material. Larger sample quantities for tests can then be provided separately.

If there is no suitable material for your application, we will be happy to schedule specific tests to meet your requirements.
