Du Pont Sontara Window Wipes

Now available to the aerospace industry is this new product designed exclusively for use on aircraft windshields and passenger windows. Engineered with the advance fabric technology of Sontara® and a unique blend of fibres, the Sontara® window wipe delivers an effective cleaning solution for windows manufactured from acrylic, polycarbonate and glass. DuPont identified a requirement within the aerospace industry for soft, low-linting fabric that would be gentle, yet durable enough to get surfaces clean.

Most scratches are caused by contaminants that already exist on the window/windscreen surface. That’s why Sontara® window wipes are designed with tiny apertures in the fabric, so when used with an industry-approved cleaning solution, create highly absorbent channels that help the wipe actually pull dirt away from the surface, reducing the potential for scratching sensitive surfaces. These unique wipes can help maintenance and manufacturing facilities save money, too—since field tests have shown that less time and fewer wipes can be used during the cleaning cycle. In fact the Sontara® window wipe is one of the few products approved by Boeing to be included on document D6-49427 for use during window assembly. Sold in packs of 25.
