Key characteristics that make this product the right choice for your paper machine.
Flat yarn construction delivers 600–1,200 L/m²·s air permeability with precise flow distribution across the fabric width, ensuring uniform drying and reduced energy consumption in dryer sections.
Engineered for continuous operation at temperatures up to 180°C with minimal dimensional change. Advanced heat-setting process ensures consistent performance throughout the fabric life.
Flat yarn profile provides larger sheet contact area compared to round yarn, improving heat transfer efficiency and reducing drying energy costs by up to 10–15%.
High-tenacity flat PET monofilament provides outstanding abrasion resistance against dryer section rolls and vacuum boxes, extending service life by 30–50% compared to standard round yarn fabrics.
Every fabric is tailored to your machine parameters — width, length, permeability, yarn dimensions, and surface characteristics are precisely matched to your dryer section requirements.
Optimized flat yarn surface contact and air flow characteristics reduce dryer section steam consumption by up to 15%, lowering operational costs and carbon footprint.
