Protection in challenging situations
Norafin supplies the industry with highly engineered and functional nonwovens, which are a reliable protection for humans, animals, and objects against heat and flame exposure.
We meet this demand with products constructed using inherently flame resistant protection. Protection will not stop by repeated wear and laundering.

We use high-quality, advanced technical fibers and fiber blends within our nonwovens. These include meta- and para-aramids, polyimide amides, UHMW-PE, or oxidized polyacrylonitrile.
Our two process technologies, spunlacing and needlepunching, enable us to offer our customers products with a wide spectrum of weights, from 30 g/m² to 800 g/m².
Especially in the field of protective clothing, we can produce lightweight, high-quality materials that provide a high level of comfort & protection.
Our Norafin 3D PERFORMANCE® material, with its embossed structure, provides improved insulation and increased comfort.
Other possible structures are flat, fine, coarse as well as extra-coarse apertured.
Multilayered material constructions allow different functions to be combined in one textile. In this process, two nonwovens with different properties are combined into a firmly bonded special textile using spunlace technology. The two functional layers can differ not only in terms of their structure or raw material, two-color variants are also possible.
We can produce our materials in different colors upon customer request.
Norafin KOMANDA® nonwovens can withstand many industrial washings, making them durable and sustainable.
The result is high-quality materials that meet Market and Industry demands for a lightweight, reusable, strong, and breathable technical textile, especially in the field of heat and flame protective clothing.
Norafin's line of protective nonwovens can come in roll widths from 0.1 m to 2.4 m max.
Our nonwovens can also be easily processed in the subsequent finishing process.
We offer our customers in-house as well as external aftertreatment options for the manufactured rolled goods. Among others, the following properties can be achieved:
- antistatic
- durable water repellent (DWR)
- wind and waterproof
- chemical resistance to many acids, oils, alcohol, salts, and alkalis
- highly visible; excellent visibility in daylight
- application according to EN ISO 20471 and/or ANSI/ISEA 107
- flame-retardant, protection against flash fire
- application according to EN ISO 14116 and/or ASTM F2733
