What is Nanomembrane
It is a material made of nano-threads drawn thinly in nanometers. It is formed by stacking nanofibers with a diameter of tens to hundreds of nanometers, and has the structural characteristic of being manufactured by electrospinning rather than weaving.
Characteristics of Nanofibers
It has a structural feature of being layered by electrospinning, so it has selective filtration and permeation performance that blocks fine harmful substances while allowing air and water vapor to pass through. It has excellent moisture permeability, breathability, durability and stretch.
Nanomembrane is Alternatives to PFAS
WHAT is PFAS
PFAS is a chemical compound (Forever Chemical) that does not decompose in nature. It is used in products from various industries such as cookware, waterproof jackets, mobile phones, semiconductors, and fire extinguishers. Although it is resistant to heat and pollution, it hardly decomposes in nature. It is a material that causes carcinogens.
Nanomembrane is an eco-friendly material that decomposes naturally and can be applied to products in a variety of industries.
SOFNT's Nanomembrane
[ Viblotec ]
SOFNT's nanomembrane Viblotec is produced by electrospinning, so it has uniformly sized micropores and at the same time high breathability and porosity. It can be produced according to the target particle size, enabling efficient filtration.

Performance comparison
Competitor VS Viblotec
Pore Distribution
Air Flow rate
Compared to Company A, Viblotec has a narrower pore size distribution, allowing for more precise and selective particle filtration. Also, despite Viblotec’s smaller pore size, its air permeability is significantly higher.
