TAFNEX™ Woven Sheets are made by weaving slit tape into a specific pattern, followed by a pressing step to consolidate the structure. By design, each woven layer comprises two crossed layers of tape. Find out more about the possible designs and specifications below.
TAFNEX™ Woven Sheets are also available in hybrid configurations, combining TAFNEX™’s carbon fiber with glass or natural fiber based woven layers. Choose the right fiber combination to fine-tune the cost-performance ratio while also customizing the visual appearance to suit your product design.
TAFNEX™ Woven Sheets can feature different weaving styles, including plain and twill patterns. The appearance can be fine-tuned by adjusting the slit tape width, with standard options including 12.5 mm and 25 mm. Check out the different options down below.
TAFNEX™ Woven Sheets are manufactured to your specifications, with thicknesses starting from approximately 0.3 mm (one woven layer). While most applications are covered with thicknesses up to 1 mm, higher thicknesses are possible as well.
TAFNEX™ Woven Sheets are made to your required dimensions, not restricted by standard sizes. Sheets can be produced up to 2.8 meters in both length and width.

Weaving TAFNEX™ UD Tape allows for the creation of not just fully reinforced TAFNEX™ Woven Sheets but also reinforcing lattice structures. The adaptability of grid spacing enables customization of this reinforcing structure for specific applications. The lattice structure can be utilized directly in the manufacturing process or pre-laminated onto a full-surface sheet, e.g., made from PP-GF.
A thin TAFNEX™ Woven Sheet is thermoformed into a high-performance diving fin blade. Unidirectional layers can be added to achieve the ideal balance between stiffness and flexibility for an exceptional underwater experience.
