Manufacturing & Transportation

Nothing beats the Sontara^® General Industrial product portfolio in all-around performance.

Wet, dry or in between, Sontara^® wipes are more versatile than cloth rags, stronger and more durable than paper, and less expensive in use than both. They’re made under strict production controls for consistent quality and uniform size and packaging — all advantages you expect from Sontara^® products. They are well-suited for the many cleanup and prep tasks in the manufacturing and transportation industry.

Sontara EC^® wipes are manufactured in a spunlacing process, using needle-like jets of water to entangle fibers into one of the finest wiping fabrics ever made. Engineered specifically for wiping, Sontara EC^® is a tough, durable material that resists abrasion and solvents, contains no binders or glues, is low-linting, and is highly absorbent in water, oil and solvents. Sontara EC^® wipes are ideal for a wide range of applications including aviation, manufacturing, painting, auto and machinery repair, printing, graphic arts and much more.

Everything a Wipe Should Be

• Tough and durable for multiple reuses
• In test after test, proven to be among the strongest — wet or dry
• Can be reused over and over; washes easily yet is inexpensive enough to treat as a disposable
• Absorbent and wipes dry
• Soaks up to 4x its weight in water and also absorbs oil and solvents
• Works fast for excellent wipe-dry
• Low-linting
• Leaves behind virtually none of the lint you get with paper and has no additives to contaminate surfaces
• Plus, it’s soft enough for polishing and finishing
• Solvent-resistant
• Stands up to MEK, isopropyl alcohol and other solvents or cleaning agents without falling apart
• Saves money
• Lasts longer, which means fewer wipes per task

Compared to other alternatives like cotton rags, Sontara EC^® dramatically reduces waste disposal and associated costs. These products reduce the risk of contamination and contain virtually no contaminants like heavy metals, VOCs or any other chemicals that can be found in alternative products.
