"Knitted mesh fabric" is a general expression used to describe a material constructed to have an open-cell structure by a knitting process (as opposed to weaving, which is operated alone). In addition to this broad range of properties, the design of specific knitted mesh materials may differ from other materials in terms of yarn, material weight, pore size, width, color and finish. All-polyester Porous Mesh Fabric is one of the most common knitted mesh fabrics.
Polyester is made up of soft synthetic polymer fibers, produced through a chemical reaction between alcohol, carboxylic acid and petroleum byproducts. The resulting fibers are then drawn and oriented together to form a strong yarn that naturally repels water, resists dyeing, resists UV degradation, and withstands heavy use. Compared to other mesh materials, polyester fabrics have many advantageous properties that make them suitable for a variety of industrial, commercial and recreational applications such as:
1. Ease of use and accessibility
2. Dimensional stability
3. Durability
4. Hydrophobicity
