Elastic Rubber Threads
Our rubber threads are made from unique latex-free rubber compounds that are skin-friendly and deliver quality, comfort and best line reliability to the diapers, training pants, adult incontinence products, and the feminine hygiene products.
Product summary
Comfort and stretch retention are extremely important criteria for the elastic used in hygiene industries.
Our rubber threads maintain stretch without sagging, while delivering leak-proof performance and a comfortable fit, regardless of size . A lower elastic pressure allows the threads to be gentle on the skin, and reduces potential red marks on babies or tender and aging skin.
