The company will initially sell sample quantities of its fibre and nonwoven fabric ranges at www.shop.techabsorbents.com but is aiming to expand the site over the coming months.

“This is a huge leap for Technical Absorbents,” commented Stuart Coomber, Commercial Director. “In the past we have been reliant on traditional sales routes. Having products listed on the internet for people to view/buy, will hopefully further the already high level of interest we have in our SAF technology.”

Access to information

“The initial launch range is now complete and in some instances products are listed as enquire only. The site allows for people to contact us directly through the shop about a specific product or buy a small amount for initial consideration/trials,” explained Stuart Coomber.

“From a product development perspective, the shop should make it easier for prospective customers to access information, understand the capabilities of our technology and speed up initial material selection.”

SAF range of products

Technical Absorbents has been manufacturing SAF since inception in 1993. It has also developed a wide range of SAF containing converted products – nonwoven fabrics (needlfelt, airlaid, carded), yarns and tapes – which it can supply directly or via one of its toll converters.

Its technology is currently used in a wide range of applications from advanced wound care products to water removal from oils and fuels.

The new ecommerce facility was officially launched on 4 September and products can be purchased in GBP, Dollars and Euros.
