Engineering Overview
PAPTEX SSB (Surface-Support-Binder) Triple Layer Forming Fabric represents the pinnacle of forming fabric technology. Engineered with a proprietary self-binding weave structure, it combines a fine paper-side surface for superior fiber support and sheet formation with a robust wear-side for extended service life. The integrated binder yarn design eliminates separate binding layers, reducing caliper while maintaining exceptional dimensional stability.
With six customizable models (LW90110, LW4080, LW3868, JLW3868, LW3560, LW3252), this fabric is tailored to your specific machine parameters — whether running tissue at 1,500+ m/min or kraft at medium speeds. The high air permeability range (10,000–21,500 m³/m²h) enables aggressive dewatering, reducing steam demand in the dryer section.
Trusted by global paper mills from Indonesia to Europe, SSB Triple Layer delivers measurable improvements: 50% speed increase, 60% longer service life, and 40% fewer unplanned stops.

Double Layer Forming Fabric
PAPTEX Double Layer Forming Fabric strikes the ideal balance between performance and cost-effectiveness for medium-speed paper machines. The dual-layer construction features a fine paper-side warp for excellent fiber retention and sheet smoothness, supported by a coarser wear-side for durability. Designed for packaging, kraft, corrugated, and duplex board grades at speeds of 600–1,200 m/min, this fabric delivers consistent drainage uniformity across the full machine width. The optimized weave pattern provides 400–700 CFM air permeability with ≥60 kN/m MD tensile strength — more than sufficient for standard fourdrinier and top-former configurations. For mills seeking to upgrade from single-layer fabrics without the investment of full SSB technology, Double Layer fabric offers a compelling step up in formation quality, fiber retention, and service life at a moderate price point.

Forming Fabric
Triple Layer Forming Fabric
PAPTEX Triple Layer Forming Fabric with self-binding technology represents our heavy-duty forming solution for demanding applications. Unlike conventional triple-layer designs that use separate binder yarns, our integrated self-binding construction eliminates the binder layer entirely — reducing caliper, improving wear resistance, and maintaining consistent drainage throughout fabric life. Engineered for packaging, kraft, corrugated, white board, and specialty paper grades, this fabric handles machine speeds of 500–1,000 m/min with ease. The reinforced wear-side construction withstands abrasive furnishes and high filler content, delivering ≥90 kN/m MD tensile strength and 300–550 CFM air permeability. Field-proven at major mills including Nine Dragons and Lee & Man Paper, the Triple Layer fabric consistently extends replacement intervals by 50–70% compared to standard double-layer designs in heavy-wear positions.

Single Layer Forming Fabric
PAPTEX Single Layer Forming Fabric is the economical workhorse for lower-speed machines and straightforward drainage requirements. Its simple 1.5-layer weave structure maximizes open area — delivering 550–850 CFM air permeability, the highest of any forming fabric type — for aggressive water removal at speeds of 300–800 m/min. Ideal for tissue and specialty paper grades where drainage rate is the primary concern, this lightweight fabric (≥45 kN/m MD tensile strength) is easy to handle during fabric changes and provides reliable performance at an attractive price point. While not offering the formation finesse of multi-layer designs, Single Layer fabric remains a practical choice for mills with older machines, budget constraints, or applications where sheer drainage capacity is the dominant requirement.
