Go a step further with this 2-day advanced course to focus on understanding various production parameters in nonwoven manufacturing, and how these can be used to modify and tailor product properties in the areas of meltblown and spunbond technologies and applications.
The Nonwovens Advanced Spunbond/Meltblown course offers comprehensive knowledge of spunlaid nonwoven products. It covers the impact of raw material choices and provides an in-depth understanding of spunbond and meltblown technologies, including their limitations, shortcomings, and solutions. Various case studies will be discussed to illustrate these concepts. Classroom instruction is complemented by practical workshops, featuring live demonstrations on the pilot lines at CETI.
This course is part of the Nonwovens Learning Cycle™, organised in collaboration with CETI (European Center for Innovative Textiles). The cycle offers an integrated approach to nonwovens from the basics, to intermediate and advanced courses.

Priscilla Arnould – R&D Project Manager, CETI
Priscilla obtained a master’s degree in Materials Chemistry at the University of Pierre and Marie Curie in Paris, followed by industrial doctoral research (Ph.D.) in polymer chemistry between CPE Lyon at the CP2M laboratory (Catalysis, Polymerization, Processes and Materials) and Bostik (Arkema). After her Ph.D. she started working for Bostik and developed her expertise in polyurethane adhesive synthesis and formulation for a wide range of markets. In her current role as an R&D Project Manager at CETI, Priscilla manages private and collaborative projects on textile recycling, polymer functionalization, polymer rheology, filaments and nonwoven development through melt spinning, spunbond, and meltblown technologies.
Julien Ritaine – Services Manager, CETI
Julien obtained his higher technician diploma in plastics engineering 15 years ago. After starting his career at Onduclair, a manufacturer of PVC and polycarbonate sheets, he joined CETI in January 2012 for the installation and initial start-up of R&D lines. Now a Services Manager, he leads a team of technicians and operators, overseeing the implementation of private and collaborative R&D projects as well as industrial audits. Julien is also a trainer in advanced spunbond and meltblown technologies in the field of nonwovens.
Edouard Duliege – R&D Project Manager, CETI
Edouard graduated from ESPCI Paris – PSL and afterwards went for a PhD in physical chemistry of polymers, at LCMD laboratory. He cofounded Kapsera, a start-up developing an encapsulation process based on biopolymers, where he built expertise in formulation and process scale-up. Edouard then worked for Sweetch Energy, a company developing an energy technology, where he honed his skills in polymers process scale-up. In his current role as Senior Engineer at CETI, Edouard manages private and collaborative projects on textile recycling, polymer functionalization, polymer rheology, filaments and nonwoven development through melt spinning, spunbond, and meltblown technologies.
Process Engineers, Product Managers, Raw Materials Managers, R&D Managers, R&D Project Managers, QA Managers. Such people are likely involved with Producers, Suppliers, Converters and Retailers within the industry.
A course based on the efficient combination of classroom training through theory, practical workshop training on real pilot equipment, information exchange and interactions with the R&D engineer and the technicians. Practical use of different supports: PowerPoint support, videos, pictures, samples and pilot equipments.
The course language is exclusively English.
Each course is limited to 6 delegates for an optimal interaction between the participants and the CETI's team during the course and the practical workshop on the platform.
In order to fully benefit from this course, it is advised to have the basis and a good understanding of nonwovens manufacturing. Before joining any of the Advanced courses, it is recommended to attend the Nonwovens essentials course.
