Industrial fabrics are usually subjected to more severe wear and tear than nonindustrial fabrics. Most are produced by the single or multiple interlacing of threads into cloth, as this technique results in the strongest link between the warp and weft. Moreover, industrial fabrics are used in an extensive range of automotive, printing, belting, filtering and processing applications. Both synthetic and natural materials are used in manufacture of industrial fabrics, which are woven in a variety of patterns or produced in unwoven textures. Some of the materials used to create industrial fabrics include fiberglass yarns, aramid fibers, graphite, nylon, Kevlar, polyester and Teflon. Furthermore, the application typically determines the required material, as each product has its own set of advantages. For instance, certain aramid fibers have excellent heat resistance and stability, and are used in protective clothing and various aerospace applications. Nylon, on the other hand, is not suited to high temperatures, but has excellent stretch and shock resistance at lower temperatures. In addition, industrial fabrics also find wide use in storage, shipping and transport operations. Likewise, synthetic industrial fabrics also serve as printing screens, sifters, separators and filter media. Owing to the wide range of applications, the industrial fabrics market is projected to propel in near future.
