Kae Hwa’s HygieSoft™ breathable laminates provide an advanced leak-proof barrier combined with a cushioned, cloth-like touch. Engineered specifically for baby diapers and adult incontinence products, it delivers exceptional fluid resistance, continuous breathability, and reliable structural strength to ensure maximum skin wellness and all-day comfort.
Premium baby diapers and adult incontinence pants require absolute certainty in leak protection without compromising the user's skin health. Kae Hwa’s HygieSoft™ backsheet is engineered to deliver complete liquid barrier integrity while maintaining an ultra-soft, textile-like feel. Built upon decades of casting film innovation (microporous PE film) and advanced in-line lamination technology, this fabric ensures not only proven fluid resistance but also exceptional tactile softness, vapor breathability, and reliable structural performance for active, all-day wear.

Our hygiene backsheet materials are meticulously tested to ensure high hydrostatic pressure resistance. The microporous structure acts as a secure bottom sheet, effectively blocking urine and liquid fluids to prevent leakage and sagging, giving consumers absolute confidence in product reliability.
Traditional plastic backsheets trap heat and moisture, which is the primary cause of diaper rash and skin irritation. HygieSoft™ utilizes billions of microscopic pores to allow humidity and body heat to vent outward continuously. This high Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR) keeps the skin's microclimate dry, cool, and healthy.
Moving away from rigid, noisy plastics, our advanced solvent-free lamination technology bonds the functional film with premium nonwoven fabrics. This achieves a whisper-quiet, cloth-like texture that reduces friction against delicate baby skin or sensitive adult skin, ensuring discretion and comfort.
Active infants and mobile adults put significant mechanical stress on hygiene products. Our integrated film-to-nonwoven laminate provides high tear and tensile strength, preventing pinholes or material separation during stretching, crawling, or walking.

In the disposable hygiene industry, preventing leaks is only the baseline; maintaining skin wellness is the true benchmark of a premium product.
When urine is absorbed by the core, the trapped moisture creates a humid environment. To meet top-tier skincare requirements, the backsheet must act as a breathable valve. HygieSoft™ achieves this by allowing microscopic water vapor to escape while locking in macroscopic liquids, directly reducing the incidence of diaper dermatitis (diaper rash).
With over 60 years of polymer and lamination expertise, Kae Hwa is a proven specialist in breathable films used in the global hygiene and personal care industry. Our materials are manufactured under strict ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 quality systems, ensuring reliable, safe, and consistent performance.
We develop hygiene laminates using proprietary technologies such as precision microporous casting and eco-friendly solvent-free lamination, enabling global diaper brands to deliver products that offer uncompromising protection and ultimate softness.
Diaper rash is primarily caused by trapped heat and moisture. HygieSoft™ features billions of microscopic pores that allow hot air and water vapor to escape from the diaper (High MVTR), keeping the skin dry and cool, while its waterproof integrity blocks all liquid urine from leaking.
Yes. We use advanced solvent-free lamination technology. Unlike traditional adhesives that may contain residual chemicals or VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), our process is eco-friendly and results in an odorless, hypoallergenic fabric that is safe for direct contact with delicate skin.
Absolutely. We offer high-resolution 4-color printing technology directly on the breathable film. We can customize the patterns, colors, and logos to match your brand identity while ensuring the printing process does not affect the material’s breathability or waterproof performance.
Standard plastic (non-breathable PE) feels like a plastic bag, makes noise, and traps moisture. HygieSoft™ is a textile-like laminate; it is whisper-quiet, incredibly soft to the touch, and "breathes" like a fabric, providing a premium experience for both infants and elderly users.
