With a unique Warp Self Binding (WSB) triple-layer design, FILCON’s FUJI/SAKURA series (WSB) offers remarkable advantages over SSB fabrics. Major advantages are:
Secures stable drainage properties until the end of product life
Higher retention without sacrificing drainage capability
Good fiber agitation and high dispersion
Higher fiber support with satin weave surface
★ A Patent-Pended Fabric Design
When tension is applied, top and bottom layers are bound tightly by MD yarns.
Minimal internal wear between two layers
Optimal drainage properties throughout fabric life
Due to the CD yarn structure of SSB weaves, top and bottom layers are bound less tightly than WSB.
Less tightness results in greater internal wear
Less-efficient drainage properties
