Infinite microfilaments, which are 100 times finer than human hair, are needled with water in a manner to produce uniform fabrics that have versatile durability and do not make pilling. Madaline® is a new and attractive fabric with different properties than other non-woven fabrics. Madaline® is a ground-breaking fabric with unique and attractive properties such as being light and compact, with good moisture management, breathable, non-pilling, good thermal insulation and quick drying. Thanks to its improved performance, Madaline® can normally be used in applications made with conventional textile products or microfiber fabrics. Home Textile Products, Clothing, Cleaning, Hygiene and Medical Areas, Technical Packaging, Graphics and Printing Ground, Automotive and Aerospace, Acoustics, Filtering, Contact with Food, Labels are some of the wide application areas. Sun Protection Madaline® is a naturally-occurring hypoallergenic product that provides protection from spreading of bedbugs and complete relief to patients suffering from dust mite allergy. ECARF Madeline®, known worldwide, has awarded an 'Allergy Friendly Products and Services' certificate. Madaline®'s production process is environmentally friendly because recycled water is used, CO2 emissions are at negligible level and use less energy than conventional textiles. Madaline® is performance-oriented and therefore requires less fabric to achieve similar performance compared to traditional textiles. Mogul has EN ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 18001, ISO 13485, ISO 22716 and ISO 50001 quality certificates. Oekotex, FSC / PEFC, ECARF certifications are also available.”
