Maturity and Comfort in a demanding market
The markets for personal hygiene and nonwoven are sensitive markets as they are related to the health and well-being of people. The products and raw materials developed and marketed in these areas should follow the parameters of quality and comfort, but also safety.
Recently, in France, a Governance Organization that enforces hygiene standards has created a huge stir after warning about the risks of various chemicals found in disposable diapers, prompting even the French Government to require manufacturers to withdraw these products.
According to various international statistics, European babies urinate every 75 minutes, with parents changing their diapers every five hours. These and other figures on this market are at the top of the concerns of the teams of international scientists, who develop intimate hygiene products for babies in a laboratorial scenario.
Colquímica Adhesives believes that it is possible to help customers improve people's quality of life by offering them the best adhesives to produce the final products delivered to the consumer.
Over the years, we have developed innovative products for the construction of disposable products for the hygiene industry, we have products for the construction, core, elastic, positioning and special applications. By using our range of technologies, namely polyolefins and blocopolymer, our brands Kmelt Perfectcare and Kmelt Spraycare meet the latest trends in a demanding and constantly evolving market.
Our moisture indicator changes from yellow to blue in contact with urine. Through this technology, the parents of children can understand when it is necessary to change the baby's diaper and, thus, enjoy a good night's sleep.
It is also important to note that we comply with the ISO 10993 standard on the dermatological safety of products, an essential element in the development of products for this industry.
The objective of Colquímica Adhesives in this market is to ensure that disposable products meet two essential factors: discretion and comfort, always safeguarding its primary function, ensuring a strong absorption and safety.
We are aware that the launch of these highly technological products is the result of the continuous investment in the skills of our human resources that work daily to diversify and innovate, creating products that improve people's daily lives.
