Wet wipes materials

Material choices that shape the finished wipe

TrustWove matches material, GSM, formula, wipe dimensions, pack count and packaging around the product you want to launch. The material decision affects touch, strength, proof story, cost range and market positioning.

Lead material

The world's only Intertek-certified 100% natural bamboo fiber wipes — 98.6% biodegradable in just 45 days.

100% bamboo fiber means every fiber in the sheet comes from bamboo: one bamboo species, with no plastic and no other plant sources blended in. It gives baby, pet, personal-care and household wipes a soft, low-lint, premium feel, and it is fully biodegradable.

For bamboo projects, share the product category, target market, formula goal and packaging promise. TrustWove can match the material, liquid system, wipe size and documentation path around that product position.

Material options

Choose the material by product job, not by a generic catalogue name

Different wet-wipe materials solve different buyer problems. The same product line may need a different material if the target changes from low-cost household cleaning to premium baby care, flushable bathroom use or industrial wiping strength.

How material affects the quotation

Material is one of the largest pricing and MOQ variables

Send your target spec and we'll quote the options side by side.

The starting point changes when the material, GSM, sheet size, count per pack, liquid system and packaging format change. A standard soft pack and a special single-sachet or gift-box project do not share the same starting point.

Touch and wetness

Material and formula need to work together so moisture feel, wiping result and after-use comfort stay consistent.

Strength and use scene

Baby, pet, surface, flushable and industrial wipes need different wet strength, softness, absorbency and lint behavior.

Proof and market story

Each material comes with its own proof: Intertek composition for 100% bamboo fiber and full-chain traceability for bamboo lyocell.

From material to finished product

The material is selected with formula, format and packaging together

We match the material with formula, size, pack and seal, so the wipe keeps its feel from first pack to last.
