Four finalists were nominated for the fourth annual Research, Innovation & Science for Engineered Fabrics Conference (RISE) Durable Product Award. The RISE Durable Product Award will be awarded to a durable nonwoven product chosen for its innovative use of nonwoven fabric and/or technology that is commercially sold and used in the consumer or industrial marketplace. The finalists will make presentations during the second day of the three-day RISE & N3M Conference. The event is organized by INDA, the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry. Technical and marketing executives in the nonwoven/engineered fabrics industry, who are charged with finding new applications, new technology, and new ideas to help grow their businesses, will cast their vote for the recipient of the 2015 RISE Durable Product Award following the presentations. The recipient of the RISE Durable Product Award will be announced on February 11. The four RISE Durable Product Award finalists are: FITESA: Fitesa Biobased Spunbond Nonwoven Fabric — a 100% biobased spunbond performance nonwoven for the hygiene and personal care markets in a sheath-core, bicomponent configuration featuring softness and robust strength. The product is the result of a three-way collaboration using entirely plant-based materials from Fitesa, Braskem, and NatureWorks. For more information visit www.fitesa.com, www.braskem.com, and www.natureworksllc.com. Conversion Technologies International: CT melt blown filter cartridges can be specified with a variety of thermally bonded end caps and springs eliminating the need for resins and adhesives resulting in a completely “Green construction.” The cartridges are FDA compliant and approved for food and beverage use.
