Frequently asked questions about woven und knitted fabrics / technical textiles
Are there differences between woven and knitted fabrics?

Yes. Woven fabrics are stable and offer high mechanical strength, whereas knitted fabrics are elastic and adapt well to complex shapes. Both variants are optimized for different uses—for example, woven fabrics for protective covers and knits for PPE or flexible passive fire protection in aircraft seating.

What are the mechanical properties of glass fiber fabrics and needle mats?

Ther fiber glass materials offer high tear resistance, abrasion resistance, and flexibility. These properties are crucial for applications in moving systems or flexible insulation, where mechanical stresses occur. In addition, insulation with needle mats significantly dampens vibrations and meet specific acoustic requirements.

How do fabrics and needle mats differ in their applications?

Fabrics are ideal for flexible applications and high mechanical loads, while needle mats provide excellent thermal insulation. More info on needle mats and fabrics
