Sandler, German nonwovens producer, has welcomed approximately 200 visitors at its booth at the Orgatec 2014, the leading international trade fair for office design and furnishing that took place from 21-25 October in Cologne, where it showcased its nonwovens under the motto The textile office.

Sandler polyester nonwovens for increased comfort and optimum sound insulation in the office were in high demand at this year’s Orgatec.

Nonwoven panels

In cooperation with renowned manufacturers of office furniture Sandler constantly works to perfect the sound insulating properties of its acoustic nonwovens.

Sandler’s nonwoven panels put a damper on workplaces with a high noise level. Acoustically efficient back walls to office cabinets, suspended ceilings or partition walls create good conversational acoustics and a pleasant atmosphere.

Printing and embossing motifs can even make these nonwovens sophisticated design elements, the company reports. Additionally, these versatile materials are also said to dampen machine noise in industrial environments.

Office chairs

Ergonomically shaped and well-cushioned, office chairs make the workplace comfortable. In this application Sandler nonwovens are utilised as an upholstery layer directly under the cover fabric and are said to provide for long-lasting seating comfort.

Owing to its high recovery rate, the high-quality material retains its shape – no matter how many times a day we get up and sit down again. Air-permeable and breathable, Sandler nonwovens also contribute to an optimal micro-climate of the seat, for pleasant and productive working, in summer and winter, according to the manufacturer.

Polyester nonwovens

The company’s acoustically efficient nonwoven panels are said to be an ideal solution for frameless partition walls, which currently are all the rage, according to the manufacturer. The textile alternatives for acoustically efficient interior design elements were a draw card, particularly for potential new customers.

Increasingly establishing themselves as an alternative to foam in office furnishing, polyester nonwovens in general were very popular with the visitors from all over Europe and Asia. Considering this a very successful trade fair participation, the company now is set for a renewed presence at the 2016 Orgatec.
