quality controlled at source

Hidrofer internally dominates all phases of the value chain, it does not follow industry standards – it defines them.
Each fiber we process goes through a closed circuit of absolute traceability, technological precision and rigorous control, guaranteeing a level of quality and safety that is unattainable for those who outsource essential steps.

To guarantee this excellence from the source, Hidrofer receives cotton from different geographies, carefully selected, ensuring that each batch meets the most demanding quality criteria.
Storage follows strict protocols that preserve the integrity of the fibers, ensuring that only excellent cotton enters the production process. Traceability allows absolute control over the origin and characteristics of each batch, reinforcing the reliability and consistency of the final product.

While others depend on external suppliers to acquire bleached cotton, at Hidrofer excellence is not delegated – it is built.

We take full control over bleaching and processing, ensuring cotton of unparalleled purity, adapted to each of our customers’ requirements and at the forefront of medical, cosmetic and personal hygiene applications.

A service with no hidden variables or external dependencies – just trust, consistency and an excellent supply chain in every detail.

bleaching and hydrophilization

At Hidrofer, the production of bleached cotton follows the highest quality and safety standards, guaranteeing a pure, safe product that is in line with the sector’s requirements.
We use advanced purification and bleaching processes, which remove natural impurities and ensure highly absorbent, soft and resistant cotton.

Hidrofer cotton is produced in accordance with the strictest standards, including the guidelines of the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.), ensuring total safety and compatibility with the most demanding applications. We follow certified quality protocols, in alignment with ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 standards, essential for the medical and health device sector.

Hidrofer’s bleaching process combines cutting-edge technology and sustainability, reducing environmental impact by optimizing water and energy consumption and reducing the use of aggressive chemicals.
With innovation and rigorous control at every stage, we guarantee bleached cotton of superior purity, ready to integrate high-performance products.

Hidrofer ensures full traceability and transparency in the value chain, guaranteeing customers absolute confidence in the origin and quality of the cotton, while internally controlling all stages of production, from raw material to final product, reinforcing its commitment to safety, reliability and operational excellence.

precision and technology in cotton processing

Cutting-edge technology and advanced automation ensure efficient transformation of fibers for different applications.
Artificial Intelligence systems guarantee the detection and removal of impurities, metal particles and potential contamination, ensuring cotton of superior purity.

In traditional carding, the cotton fibers are aligned and parallelized to form a uniform veil, ensuring softness and optimized performance. This process is essential for the production of hydrophilic cotton in wicks, rolls and conventional formats, used in medical, cosmetic and personal hygiene applications.

In addition to this process, Hidrofer uses Waterjet technology, which uses the crossing of fibers by water jet to interconnect the fibers without the need for adhesives or chemical agents.

This innovation provides structural strength without compromising softness and absorption, making it ideal for make-up removal pads and hygiene non-wovens, where the integrity and performance of cotton are essential.

automation and efficiency in production

Hidrofer has reinforced its production capacity through the implementation of advanced technology and automated production lines, ensuring efficiency, quality and versatility in its processes.
With the adoption of Industry 4.0 principles, production systems were modernized, allowing real-time monitoring, resource optimization and waste reduction.

Manufacturing processes include precision equipment for transforming hydrophilic cotton into different formats and products, ensuring high standards of quality and safety.
Supervised by digitalized management systems, they allow for a more agile production flow, reducing response times and constant optimization of installed capacity.

Hidrofer maintains an ongoing commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency, investing in solutions that reduce the ecological footprint and promote environmental responsibility throughout the entire production chain.

packaging and brand customization

Hidrofer stands out for its total control of the packaging process, ensuring customization, quality and efficiency at every stage.
The company has automated packaging lines, where film printing and customization systems guarantee a premium finish, adapted to the demands of each client.

The integrated technology enables the automatic incorporation of functional elements such as thread closures into medical and cosmetic products, as well as the in-house production of sustainable plastic packaging for cotton buds, made by injection molding recyclable plastic. In line with European environmental regulations, Hidrofer also invested in the production of paper cotton swab sticks, meeting regulatory requirements and reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainability.

Customization capabilities extend to the entire product range, allowing customers to define formats, quantities and packaging patterns according to their needs.
This integrated model guarantees flexibility and independence from external suppliers, reinforcing Hidrofer’s position as a strategic partner for brands that value quality, efficiency and sustainability.
