Inventors include Gawryla, Matthew Daniel; Hagens, Sander Christiaan; Khandelwal, Hitesh; Lugtenburg, Christian; and Subramanian, Srinath.

The application for the patent was published on July 10, 2026, under issue no. 28/2026.

Abstract: A method of forming rotary fibers (e.g., glass fibers) that have a more uniform or constrained fiber diameter and/or length distribution is disclosed. The rotary fibers, which have the improved property distribution(s) across a volume of the fibers, promote the formation of improved non-woven fibrous mats and products formed from the mats (e.g., a facer for a ceiling tile). Because of the more uniform/consistent non-woven mat, the ceiling tile facer can have fewer visual defects.
