Aramid Woven material has a number of benefits:
- High temperature resistance
- High Tensile Strength
The silicone coating on both sides has a number of benefits:
- Woven structure is locked to prevent unraveling along edges
- Easy to clean surface on both sides
- Smooth surface on both sides
- Less capillary contamination of the woven fabric
- Better Stitching capabilities of the seam constructions
- High temperature resistance coating

Certification
No food contact compliancy. Not tested for its electrostatic properties. Has not been explosion pressure tested. Water- and Air- pressure tests can be performed upon request in diameters 200, 250, 300, 630, 900, 1400
Production methods
Cutting
All Aramid parts are cut using a 1500 kW Laser Cutter, this burns and melt seals the edges of the woven fabric. This may leave some black discoloring on the edges.
Stitching
Stitching patterns are either Zig-Zag, or double row stitched. Yarns are in Aramid.
Seaming
Seams occasionally are also glued using various Silicone Adhesives.
