ABOUT US
Do you know when and where the world’s first bi-component production line for spunbonded nonwovens with hydroentanglement went into operation? It was in 2015 – and it was at our plant. More than 5,500 tonnes of high-quality nonwovens with a wide range of properties leave our plant every year.
Our focus
REGIONALLY ANCHORED, GLOBALLY NETWORKED: Our home is the beautiful Harz Mountains. We now employ more than 30 people in Halberstadt in Saxony-Anhalt. This provides secure jobs in a region to which we feel very close. However, our network of co-operation partners and customers extends far beyond Saxony-Anhalt: hydroWEB products are in use in Germany and around the world. We also drive innovation together with other companies in development partnerships.
Our claim
THE FABRIC THAT MAKES YOUR PRODUCT A SUCCESS: We are only satisfied when our nonwoven fabric has exactly the properties you need for your product. We meet every new challenge with this claim and master it as a team. Not possible? Not possible.

Cutting-edge technology – well explained
With our hydroWeb BiCo technology, we specifically utilise the power of the element of water and are one of only very few companies that offer this special hydroentanglement process. ThermoWeb BiCo utilises the element of fire by giving nonwovens special properties through heat treatment.
hydroWebBiCo
Benefits
Hydroentanglement creates nonwovens with greater flexibility. They have higher elongation values and are generally more textile-like, softer and more puncture-resistant. Better adhesion makes them ideal for use with tile adhesives and plaster, for example. We would be happy to advise you personally on further advantages.
thermoWebBiCo
Benefits
Thermosetting creates a smoother surface and less air permeability. Lower grammages are possible, which enables particularly thin intermediate layers or separating layers. It is also the more cost-effective option. We would be happy to advise you personally on further advantages.
BiCo technology –
What it can do (better)
If the shell and core can be equipped with different raw materials, this creates a huge variety of new possibilities. For example, different polymers such as polypropylene and polyethylene can be flexibly combined with each other. The right combination makes nonwovens for medical products resistant to gamma radiation, for example, or enables high cost savings by reducing the weight per square metre while maintaining the same technical properties.
THE hydroWEB-PRODUCTWORLD
hydroWebBiCo
The hydroentangled spunbonded nonwoven is produced using BiCo technology on a line width of 3,300 mm. With a freely adjustable basis weight of 30 to 250 g/m² and freely selectable raw material combinations such as PP/PP, PP/PE or the use of PLA, it offers the greatest possible flexibility.
