What material is used to make baby wipes?
The material of baby wipes is spunlace (also called non-woven fabric). Spunlace refers to a kind of non-woven fabric forming process, as well as other processes such as hot air and hot rolling, but baby wipes are generally spunlace non-woven.
Rayon, polyester, and cotton
The spunlace non-woven fabric for baby wipes material is mainly composed of Rayon viscose (natural fiber mainly cotton) and polyester (chemical fiber).The ratio of the statement refers to the content ratio of viscose and polyester, and the 3:7 ratio means that viscose accounts for 30% and polyester accounts for 70%. The higher the viscose content, the better the quality, and the higher the cost and price.
Soft, absorbent fabrics
The materials of baby wipes are generally divided into two types: polyester fiber and viscose fiber. Among them, polyester fiber is cheap, low cost, easy to fluff after wiping, It is a chemical fiber; viscose fiber is processed by natural plants. The cost is relatively high; for cost considerations and the comfort of baby wipes.Polyester fiber and viscose fiber will be used as raw materials for baby wipes in proportion, but the proportions are usually different. The higher the viscose proportion, the softer the baby wipe material and the better absorption.

You can always keep it in your life, but pay attention to the shelf life.
