AQFRESH™

AqFresh™ is a versatile new odour capture technology which has been incorporated into Hygiene Nonwovens used in diapers, pads, and medical dressings.  It has been proven to significantly reduce product odours as well as external odours from the urine, faeces, sweat or menstrual fluids they absorb in-use.

Our patented technology utilises Cucurbiturils – barrel-shaped molecules with a hollow hydrophobic cavity and polar portals enabling them to tightly bind a wide spectrum of unwanted molecules.

This unique technology has been applied to nonwoven materials through finishing treatments such as spraying & padding, through dry impregnation, and by compounding into fibres.

AqFresh™ removes a wide range of malodours, works in a wet or dry environment, and is non-toxic. It has a broad range of other nonwoven applications including automotive interior trim and air filters.

Innovate with AqFresh™ to reduce odours and make living with incontinence, periods or chronic wounds a fresher, embarrassment-free experience.
