Textra® Synthetic Dry Wipers Hydroentangled Polyester/Cellulose Wipers for High Absorbency and Cleanroom Efficiency Textra® synthetic wipers utilize hydroentangled polyester and cellulose fibers to deliver high absorbency, strong durability, and controlled lint performance—ideal for cleanroom environments requiring efficient fluid handling and reliable cleaning. ▼ EXPAND TECHNICAL REFERENCE
High-Absorbency Blended Wipers for Controlled Environments
Textra® wipers are manufactured using hydroentanglement technology, mechanically bonding polyester and cellulose fibers without chemical binders. This creates a strong, highly absorbent material capable of efficient liquid uptake and retention.
The blended fiber construction provides a balance between the durability and low lint characteristics of polyester and the high absorbency of cellulose. This makes Textra® wipers highly effective for fluid-intensive cleaning tasks.
Textra® products are widely used in cleanroom and controlled environments where efficient cleaning, spill control, and solvent application are required.
