LUMBER PROTECTIVE FABRICS

Texene LLC is an innovative global leader in manufacturing slit olefin film fabrics that meet required product specifications. Our engineers have developed Lumber protective fabrics that are designed with the following four key points in the fore-front:

  1. Provide protection meeting physical requirements
  2. Avoid handling damage
  3. 100% recyclable
  4. Slip resistance

Our research and development team has come up with a unique composition olefin slit film (up to 6 mm), made with quality resin and value added additives to achieve the unique properties as per the requirements. In addition, our manufacturing team uses modern weaving machines with up-to-date peripherals to reduce the stress and strain of slit film without damaging its intended properties during extrusion and is extrusion coated on a state of the art wide coating machine. Texene woven fabric has consistent desirable properties across the warp (machine) & weft (fill) directions.

Lumber Protective Fabrics:

Texene’s innovative engineers provide a number of choices in using “Weaving & Extrusion Coating” technology. Depending upon consumer’s extrusion coating requirements, our product is offered in polypropylene or polyethylene substrate. We will manufacture the fabric as per your requirements for color, thickness, width, strength, print and any added properties with other options. Our lumber wrap fabrics provide dirt & dust protection, protection against adverse weather, and defense against staining during storage and transportation.
