Abstract: A wet wipe is provided. The wet wipe includes a sheet formed from non-plastic materials. The sheet has a weight of between 40-90 gsm. The sheet comprises a blend of wood pulp fluff fiber and cellulosic staple fibers and/or cross-linked curly pulp. The wood pulp fluff fiber has a weight percent of between 60-95%. The cellulosic staple fibers and/or cross-linked curly pulp has a weight percent of between 40-5%. A plastic free binder is included. The sheet has an effective wet strength of at least 150 grams per linear inch in the cross-direction.

Abstract: A cleaning wipe having a nonwoven substrate impregnated with a dispersal composition including at least one of a polar solvent and a water-in-oil emulsion is disclosed. The dispersal composition provides an enhancement to the dispersion of the nonwoven substrate including a binder when placed within a waste water stream after use, thereby more effectively disposing of the wipe after use.

Abstract: A cleaning composition including a preservative formulation having hydroxy acetophenone and a phospholipid complex is disclosed. The cleaning composition can be loaded on a cleaning wipe and used for personal care. The hydroxyacetophenone provides a preservative booster to the preservative system for the cleaning composition containing a phospholipid complex, such as cocamidopropyl PG-dimonium chloride phosphate, which has some limited independent preservation activity, depending on the level in the final formulation.

Abstract: There is disclosed a laminated, nonwoven fabric and a process for producing such a laminated, nonwoven fabric having desirable fluid holding and fluid release characteristics. The process provides that two sheets of meltblown fiber fabric are produced on forming wire assemblies, cooled at a cooling area, and are then laminated on opposite sides of a sheet of spunbonded fibers using to form the laminated, nonwoven fabric.

Abstract: A cleaning pad is provided. The cleaning pad includes a cover layer, a core, and an attachment layer. The core is located between the cover layer and the attachment layer. A porous abrasive substance is applied to the attachment layer.

Abstract: Embodiments of a lid are provided. In one embodiment, the lid may be coupled to a container to provide selective access to the contents of the container. In one embodiment, the lid is configured to be stacked.

Abstract: A sealing push-button lid for consumer wipes is disclosed. The lid may be used to seal a package of wipes for infant care, and may also be used for sealing and dispensing of one-at-a-time wipes for general cleaning purposes. The lid makes it easy for a busy person to use a single hand to pop open the lid in order to grasp and dispense the next wipe in a series of Z-folded wipes or inner-folded wipes in a preferably soft and flexible container. Containers with the push button lid may also be used with wipes that are folded in other ways. The lid is formed as one piece or two pieces, the pieces joined by a hinge that allows movement of the lid top with respect to the lid bottom. The lid is designed for easy joining and sealing to a container, preferably by a bead of hot melt adhesive or adhesive strips.
