Available Weave Types

The weave pattern determines drainage, cake release, strength, and pore structure of the filter fabric.

Plain Weave (Leinwandbindung)

Simplest interlacing pattern. Good dimensional stability, uniform pore distribution. Standard for general filtration.

Twill Weave (Köperbindung)

Diagonal pattern distributes stress evenly. Higher tear strength and better drape on curved surfaces. Preferred for heavy-duty filtration.

Satin Weave (Atlasbindung)

Smooth, low-friction surface promotes excellent cake release. Ideal for fine particle retention and pharmaceutical applications.

Leno Weave (Dreherbindung)

Open mesh structure with locked yarn crossings. Maximum drainage and air permeability. Used for coarse pre-filtration and dewatering.

Surface Finishes

Post-weaving treatments that modify the fabric surface for specific filtration performance requirements.

Calendered

Hot roller pressing for a smooth, compacted surface. Improves cake release and reduces particle penetration.

Heat-Set

Thermal stabilisation that locks the weave geometry. Prevents shrinkage and improves dimensional stability.

Singed

Flame treatment removes surface fibres for a cleaner finish. Reduces blinding and improves washability.

Coated

Microporous PU or PTFE coating for fine particle retention. Achieves sub-micron filtration without sacrificing flow.
