Abstract: A woven fabric material including an array of machine direction yarns and cross-machine direction yarns. The array includes larger denier yarns arranged in an alternating pattern with smaller denier yarns in both the machine direction and the cross-machine direction. The array of machine direction yarns and cross-machine direction yarns is arranged to allow water to pass freely through the woven fabric material.

Abstract: Woven polymeric fabrics or materials with antimicrobial additives suitable for example for use in connection with diatomaceous earth pool filters, monofilament pool cartridge filters, and trampoline mats are disclosed. Examples of the woven polymeric fabric of the present invention includes a composition having a polymer and at least one antimicrobial additive. Methods of composing and weaving antimicrobial polymeric materials are also disclosed.

Abstract: Example forms of the invention relate to a woven fabric material comprising an array of machine direction yarns and cross-machine direction yarns, with larger denier yarns arranged in an alternating pattern with smaller denier yarns in both the machine direction and the cross-machine direction, wherein the material allows water to pass freely therethrough. Further example forms of the invention relate to a swimming pool cover at least partially formed of the disclosed fabric.

Abstract: A water-permeable woven geotextile fabric for providing soil reinforcement and/or stabilization, for example as an underlayment in road construction, utilizes a series of round warp fibers, in combination with a series of flat warp fibers, across the width of the fabric to increase water flow while still providing desired filtration. In particular, the round warp fibers form angles that allow greater amounts of water to pass through the fabric. In addition, using both round and flat warp fibers results in increased roughness of the fabric surface, which makes the fabric more resistant to being pulled out of the soil when pulled on. Furthermore, one or more of the round and/or flat warp fibers can include a color selected for high visibility to the human eye in daylight conditions.

Abstract: A turf reinforcement fabric and a method for producing such a fabric by weaving a plurality of filaments in a predetermined pattern to form a three-dimensional structure formed to have a loft thickness without requiring the application of heat to heat shrink the fibers, and/or formed with one or more fibers of increased thickness at peaks and valleys of the woven structure, and/or incorporating flame retardant and/or UV stabilizing fiber additives.
