Which Is Better, Woven or Non-Woven Polypropylene Fabric? | Qingdao Johson Packaging

Non-woven and woven polypropylene are equally impressive in terms of waterproof abilities. If you have to choose between the two, it might be better to compare and contrast the options based on your needs.

First, consider durability. The drawback for non-woven polypropylene bags is that they lack the tensile strength of woven fabric. Weaving threads together creates multiple points of reinforcement that don’t exist with the heat-pressed polypropylene fabric. 

Second, consider how important breathability is compared with waterproof abilities. If you can manage without perfect water imperviousness, then you have a lot more flexibility than if you must have a completely waterproof product.

Finally, consider　how important colors and logos are. Woven polypropylene fabric tends to be white or lighter colored with logos or colors applied over the laminate, meaning they may not last as long. On the other hand, non-woven fabric handles colors and logos easier and you can apply them before any treatments or laminates.

It’s easy to tell the difference between the two types as well. Woven polypropylene will have a checkerboard pattern that reveals the threads. Non-woven fabrics have more of a canvas-like texture.
