At Barnhardt we’ve been pioneering new cotton products for more than 100 years, and today we still remain committed to innovation. Evidence of this commitment is our revolutionary HyDri™ cotton, one of our newest creations.

HyDri™ is a new all-natural fiber replacement for extruded films or poly-based materials and especially suited for sensitive skin areas. HyDri™ is processed to a high degree of whiteness and is hydrophobic even after hydroentangling. In layman’s terms, this product allows moisture to pass through while still remaining dry to the touch.

This kind of unique characteristic, combined with cotton’s next-to-skin softness and breathability, means HyDri™ can be used in a variety of products, ranging from feminine care to diapers to incontinence. Obviously these are products that consumers rely on. And while cotton has always been a trustworthy fiber, our HyDri™ innovation provides an even higher level of performance, comfort, and reliability.
