Voith Achieves Final Acceptance Certificate for Ecowipes WLM 2 Line Producing 100% Plastic-Free Baby Wipes

Voith and Ecowipes have successfully completed the commissioning of the WLM 2 production line in Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki, Poland, receiving the Final Acceptance Certificate (FAC). This milestone marks the first application of Voith’s innovative FloatLip Former technology in producing carded/pulp (CP) wipes, enabling a yearly capacity of about 20,000 tons of 100% plastic-free, biodegradable baby wipes made from 60% pulp and 40% viscose. The FloatLip Former offers a compact, cost-effective, and space-saving alternative to traditional HydroFormers, tailored specifically for Ecowipes’ requirements. The collaboration between the two companies has driven operational excellence and sustainability innovation in the nonwoven wipes sector. Voith will continue to support the line’s optimization through a service contract, advancing sustainable hygiene product manufacturing.
