26 Aug 2024 --- VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland is experimenting with an “entirely new technology” to create lighter fiber-based products using air-laid technology — a method of forming webs to craft material by mixing fibers with air, forming a uniform air-fiber mixture. The institution has launched its Energy First Initiative to develop and test these “commercially viable, lighter and more sustainable” alternatives for cardboard packaging, hygiene products and non-woven fabrics.
