MELTBLOWN

Hills Inc.'s meltblown systems utilize our propietary polymer metering and distribution technology to produce high-quality nonwoven fabrics with fine fibers and tailored properties. By extruding molten polymer through a linear die and attenuating the fibers with high-velocity hot air, meltblown technology creates self-bonding webs.
