BEAULIEU FIBRES INTERNATIONAL
LAUNCHES ULTRABOND Beaulieu Fibres International (BFI) unveils a unique opportunity for carpet manufacturers to create fully recyclable needlepunch carpets, and benefit from production and resource savings, without influencing performance.
Launched at Domotex 2019, new UltraBond is a patented polyolefin bonding staple fibre that eliminates the need for latex or other chemical binders to bind nonwovens. It opens up a new path for creating 100% polypropylene (PP) needlepunch carpets which meet the same performance requirements as traditional latex-bonded carpets while reducing the end-of-life environmental impact. Functional properties such as pilling resistance, resistance to wear and abrasion, and also UV resistance are guaranteed.
A staple in the toolbox of flooring installers across the country, cans of floorwise spray adhesives are perfect for those much-needed quick fixes; helping to hold-firm carpets, underlay, carpet tile and vinyl in a jiffy. Proving the gold standard in fixing a variety of floorcoverings, F599 Heavy Duty Spray Adhesive delivers excellent bond strength and super- quick drying in every 500ml can. With a high-solid ratio for more adhesive in every 500ml can, F599 can cover approximately 3m2

plastics production chain and reduced waste generation, environmental advantages and financial savings arise from a total lack of water and less energy use. As a 100% dry process, thermal bonding uses no water and results in a total absence of waste water. There is also a reduction in the VOC level of the carpet. This all leads to a significant reduction in a needlepunch carpet’s ecological footprint.
The sustainability benefits are quantified through lifecycle analysis (LCA) of an exhibition carpet application – among the primary applications for needlepunch carpets. Evaluations show that the absence of water consumption directly translates into a large energy saving of 93% when using UltraBond compared to a latex bonding solution, and also a potential annual water saving of over 20million litres for 100million m2
of
exhibition applications in the EU. Without the addition of any other bonding agent, CO2 emissions are reduced by 35% over the full production process.
