The first and most common type is based on a material called "Airlaid" weighing 55 to 60 grams per square meter . Sometimes, on entry-level products, the weight can drop to 50 grams per square meter .
Non-woven material is the most commonly used due to its value for money, as it is an easy product for a converter to manufacture who will "simply" cut to the correct width and length to obtain a finished product in roll form.
It goes by several names depending on the processors: Celisoft (a registered trademark of CGMP), Airlaid, or Walkisoft. In this case, manufacturers source a "master roll" of finished material and then process it into the format of their product range.
Dunicel quality 140 gr/m2

Spunbond quality

Therefore, it's important to pay attention to the country of origin, as the product may have undergone minimal processing. Spunbond is used in many applications besides tablecloths, such as protective masks and disposable PPE. In the restaurant industry, it is primarily sold in rolls and then as placemats for terraces, restaurants, and intimate dining.
