Since the 1970s, CAMPEN has designed reliable and robust nonwoven solutions for industrial production. We build complete airlaid lines and support customers with clear process data. Our airlaid pilot testing helps you prove concepts, test materials and optimise the airlaid process before a major investment.
You receive quality samples, documented results and practical guidance from our airlaid team. We listen, test, document and help you choose a reliable production path. This reduces uncertainty before you commit to full-scale airlaid technology.
Use airlaid pilot testing to test airlaid products before investing in full-scale production. You can validate raw materials, recipes and product properties under controlled conditions. This gives your team a stronger basis for technical and commercial decisions.
You can evaluate forming, bonding and drying in one structured trial. The results help define a stable process window and reduce costly assumptions. They also support discussions about capacity, product quality and production line configuration.
Typical trial objectives include basis weight control, web uniformity and bonding strength. Airlaid pilot testing also helps assess absorption, softness, density, bulk and SAP distribution. These parameters often decide whether a product is ready for scale-up.
We start with your target product, materials and KPIs. Our team then prepares a focused test plan with clear acceptance criteria. This keeps the pilot trial efficient and aligned with your end-use requirements.
During airlaid pilot testing, we adjust process settings and record key values. We produce samples for lab testing, customer review or internal validation. Trial data can also support product development testing and future specifications.
After the trial, you receive a concise report with settings, results and recommendations. This helps you assess line concepts, capacity needs and scale-up options. The report can also support SOPs and operator training later in the project.
Our airlaid pilot testing line is designed to reflect full-scale airlaid technology. You can adjust feed systems, forming heads, web layering, binder application and drying profiles. This flexibility supports many product types and material combinations.
The pilot line is easy to operate and supports fast set-up. Safe access and clear controls help reduce downtime during trials. The layout also makes it easier to review process changes with your technical team.
We help you optimise fibre opening, distribution and web uniformity. Adjustable airflow and suction help tune basis weight and porosity. These settings can improve stability and reduce waste in future production.
You can test thermal bonding, latex binders and biobased binders. Adjusting add-on, curing and temperature helps reach target strength and handfeel. Correct bonding can improve durability and reduce end-use complaints.
We sample and measure key properties during the trial. You receive test sheets, samples and a structured report. This supports safe scale-up and helps define specification limits before equipment is selected.
CAMPEN is a long-standing nonwovens partner with strong process experience. Our engineers design, build and service complete airlaid lines worldwide. This gives your trial team practical knowledge from real production environments.
You work with specialists who understand airlaid product development testing and production risks. We help you make decisions based on trials, data and practical line knowledge. Our focus is always on reliable performance, robust design and easy maintenance.
Whether you are a manufacturer, converter or product developer, pilot trials can support better decisions. An airlaid testing facility gives you evidence before you specify or buy a full production line. It also helps confirm whether the selected recipe fits your quality, cost and capacity targets.
A successful trial starts with clear targets. Define the product type, basis weight, roll width, absorbency, strength and material limits. Share available raw material data and any existing production challenges.
CAMPEN can then propose a practical trial structure. The aim is to confirm feasibility, refine your recipe and set a reliable process window. This gives your team a stronger platform for investment planning and production scale-up.
