MOGUL R and D
Mogul Nonwovens' R&D activities began with a patent obtained in the United States in 2002 and continued with the establishment of a Ministry-approved R&D center in 2022. During this process, new products were protected and launched on the market with many patent applications and trademark registrations. The R&D center aims to achieve new product development goals with a wide cooperation network by developing project-based collaborations with more than 20 universities.
Product Innovations and Advanced Technology
In recent years, major investments have been made to integrate the latest developments in Spunbond technologies. New generation polypropylene (PP)-based nonwoven materials offer superior durability despite their thin structures, and environmentally friendly alternatives produced using recycled materials are also offered. These products provide great advantages in terms of both economic and ecological sustainability.
Environmental Sustainability and Innovative Production Techniques
The R&D team continues to develop environmentally friendly nonwoven fabrics by focusing on plastic waste reduction and sustainable production processes. The use of bio-based PLA (Polylactic Acid) materials also aims to reduce environmental impacts. This innovative material has a much lower carbon footprint than traditional materials.
Performance and Durability Tests
Our new generation nonwoven fabrics stand out with their features such as durability, waterproofing and UV resistance. The R&D department is working to improve these features by working on chemical coating techniques and lamination processes. These features are of critical importance for applications in the health and medical sectors (hospital bed linens, surgical masks, protective clothing).
Customization Studies for Customer Needs
Developing products specific to customer demands is an important part of our R&D studies. Focusing on customized grammages, color options and textural features, nonwoven products designed according to the specific needs of customers are offered. The introduction of new technologies that will facilitate the production of these customized products in our own production lines also provides speed and flexibility.
R&D Investments and Global Collaborations
The latest developments in the sector are followed thanks to global collaborations. R&D agreements with universities and collaborations with industry leaders offer great opportunities in the field of innovation. Increasing R&D investments ensures the continuation of the production of sustainable and high-quality nonwoven products. Studies in the fields of material science and nanotechnology aim to increase product efficiency and functionality.
Innovations in Health and Hygiene
Nonwoven fabrics with antimicrobial properties are being developed for hygienic applications in the medical sector. These fabrics are designed for use in healthcare products such as surgical drapes and medical gloves, help prevent the spread of microorganisms and provide safe solutions for both the user and the environment.
