Wet Wipe Production Line and Factory Setup

A wet wipe production line is a complete industrial system designed to unwind nonwoven fabric, impregnate it with lotion, fold, cut and pack wet wipes under controlled hygienic conditions. The line produces baby wipes, personal-care wipes and cleaning wipes.

From an industrial perspective, wet wipe manufacturing is important because it combines precise fabric handling, controlled impregnation, accurate folding and cutting, and reliable sealing to achieve consistent moisture, softnes and package integrity. The process relies on a defined sequence of unit operations that must be correctly engineered, sized and integrated.

Primary materials typically include nonwoven fabric (spunbond), deionized water, preservatives, softeners, alcohol, fragrance and packaging film. The core machinery set consists of unwinders, impregnation systems, folding units (6–20 lanes), cutters, heat-seal packaging machines (60–160 packs/min) and labelers.

The Industrial Department supports investors who want to establish a new wet wipe plant as well as existing operators who need repair, overhaul, capacity expansion or automation of their current lines. Projects can start from an empty site or from an operating facility that requires technical upgrading.

Whether the goal is a green-field turnkey wet wipe plant in Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan or other regional markets, or the modernization of an existing line in Iran, engineering, machinery supply or manufacturing, installation, commissioning and ongoing technical support can be provided under defined contractual scopes.

Production Line Overview

The wet wipe line is engineered as an integrated process system covering fabric unwinding, impregnation, folding, cutting, heat-seal packaging and labelling. Design capacity is determined during the engineering phase and can typically reach around 1000 wipes per minute depending on configuration.

Main machinery groups include unwinders, impregnation systems, folders, cutters, heat-seal packers and labelers. Supporting infrastructure covers electrical power and process water.

Manpower requirements depend on the degree of automation. Quality control covers moisture content, microbial safety and package integrity.

Manufacturing Process

  1. Unwinding – Nonwoven fabric is unwound.
  2. Impregnation – Fabric is impregnated with lotion.
  3. Folding – Fabric is folded (6–20 lanes).
  4. Cutting – Wipes are cut to size.
  5. Heat-Seal Packaging – Packs are sealed (60–160 packs/min).
  6. Labelling – Labels and codes are applied.

Machinery & Equipment

  • Unwinder and Impregnation System – Feeds and wets the fabric. Position: first stages. Importance: moisture uniformity. Quality impact: uneven impregnation causes dry or over-wet packs. Maintenance: rollers, pumps and tanks. Sahi Rasa support covers design, installation, repair and spare parts.
  • Folding Unit and Cutter – Folds and cuts the wipes. Position: mid-line. Importance: pack count and size accuracy. Quality impact: inaccurate folding or cutting causes complaints. Maintenance: folders, knives and drives.
  • Heat-Seal Packer and Labeler – Seals and labels the packs. Position: end of line. Importance: package integrity and identification. Quality impact: weak seals cause leakage. Maintenance: sealing jaws, film systems and applicators.

Factory Layout & Building Requirements

Typical areas include fabric storage, conversion hall, packaging, quality control, utilities and staff facilities. Hygienic zoning is essential. Exact area is determined during engineering.

Utilities

  • Electricity: 380 V three-phase, 15–30 kW
  • Water: 5–10 m³/day

Turnkey Factory Setup

An investor can start from an empty site. The project can be accompanied through feasibility, engineering, design, machinery, installation, commissioning, training and commercial production.

EPC & PMC

Projects can be executed under EPC or PMC approaches within defined contracts.

Machinery Repair

Existing wet wipe lines can request inspection, repair and spare-parts support for unwinders, folders, cutters and packers.

Machinery Overhaul & Refurbishment

Older equipment can be overhauled and control systems upgraded.

Capacity Expansion

Capacity can be increased by upgrading folding or packaging capacity.

Industrial Automation

PLC control of speed, moisture and packaging is typical.

Supply Chain

The Supply Chain Department supports nonwoven fabric, lotion components and packaging supply.

Packaging

Flow-packs, lids, labelling and secondary packaging are integrated according to market requirements.

Branding & Product Development

Support for formulation development, packaging design and branding is available when required.

Market & Country Sections

Services are available in Iran, Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan and other listed regional markets.
