How TAD (Through-Air-Drying) Process Works

Unlike conventional tissue dried by pressing against hot cylinders, TAD uses heated air blown through the fiber web — preserving a lofty 3D structure that delivers unmatched absorbency and softness.

1

Forming

Pulp slurry is evenly distributed onto the forming wire to create a uniform fiber web.

2

Dewatering

Mechanical dewatering removes bulk water via vacuum and press elements before thermal drying.

3

Through-Air Drying

Hot air (150–300°C) penetrates through the fiber web on a permeable belt, drying fibers without crushing — creating the signature 3D bulk structure.

4

Calendering

Light calendering controls surface smoothness and thickness while preserving the TAD bulk and texture.

5

Reeling

The finished TAD tissue is wound into large-diameter parent reels, ready for converting or direct shipment.

TAD (Through-Air-Dried) uses hot air blown through the fiber web, preserving a lofty 3D structure. This gives TAD towels 3× better absorbency, significantly higher bulk (≥8.0 cm³/g vs ~4-5 cm³/g for CBF), superior softness, and a cloth-like feel. CBF (Crescent Former Belt) tissue is pressed against hot cylinders, which compresses the fibers and reduces bulk. TAD is the premium choice for high-quality kitchen towels.
We ship from Shanghai, Qingdao, and Yancheng (Jiangsu) ports. Standard packaging is kraft paper wrapping with heat-shrink film on wooden pallets. A 20ft container holds approximately 15-18 tons; a 40ft HQ holds 22-25 tons, depending on reel size. We offer FOB, CIF, and CFR shipping terms.
