The present embodiments provide a woven element having a first plurality of warp threads extending in a first direction and integrated into a first surface on a front side of the woven element. The woven element may have a second plurality of warp threads extending in the first direction, where the second plurality of warp threads is integrated into a second surface on a back side of the woven element. A first weft thread may extend in a second direction, where a first portion of the first weft thread is positioned in front of at least one warp thread of the first plurality of warp threads to form at least a portion of a graphic image on the front surface. A second portion of the first weft thread may extend between the first plurality of warp threads and the second plurality of warp threads.

The present subject matter discloses a fabric weaving method and apparatus therefor, wherein the method includes forming a fabric where the warp ends of the fabric is made of multifilament polyester yarns and the weft picks are made of cotton or regenerated cellulose fiber or linen fiber or a combination thereof. The woven textile fabric has 50-89 EPI of multifilament polyester yarns of denier within a range of 75D-200D with 7-250 filaments in each polyester yarn, wherein one or more yarns per dent is setup in the reed apparatus of the warp of the loom apparatus. Further, the woven textile fabric comprises of 50-91 picks per inch of cotton or regenerated cellulose fibre or linen fiber or a combination thereof and of 20-50 count (NE). Furthermore, the total cover factor of the woven textile fabric is 10-38, wherein the warp cover factor is 8-19 and the weft cover factor is 10-19.

Provided is a high thread/yarn count woven textile fabric made of recycled multi-filament yarns. The high thread/yarn count woven textile fabric includes a plurality of warps, and a plurality of wefts. Further, the high thread/yarn count woven textile fabric has 400 to 3000 ends per inch in the warp, where at least two recycled separable multi-filament parallel ends are woven in groups in the warp. The recycled separable multi-filament parallel ends are separable from the other ends. Furthermore, the thread/yarn count of the fabric is between 500 to 3000. The invention uses a simple and direct process to achieve a good quality textile having a high thread/yarn count at low production cost.

The invention relates to an adhesive tape, in particular wrapping tape, for sheathing automotive cables, having a textile support and at least one adhesive coating layer applied to one side or both sides of the textile support, and the textile support being manufactured entirely or partially from bio-based polymer fibers and/or polymer yarns, characterized in that the textile support is constituted of multi-weft yarns and/or multi-warp yarns.

Disclosed is a shoe upper with an illuminating logo. The upper includes a main body part, a logo part, and a lighting unit, in which the logo part for illumination may be formed integrally with the upper, providing the upper with an illumination feature. In this way, the upper with an illuminating logo can be manufactured with a reduced amount of time, leading to an improved manufacturing efficiency. In addition, the logo part is much less likely to come off and there is no need for an adhesive or bonding, creating an aesthetically attractive appearance from outside.

A stabilized fabric composed of a mesh or a woven fabric is disclosed as are methods of their manufacture, the manufacture of medical devices made using a stabilized fibers and stabilized medical devices are all disclosed. Fabrics can be stabilized by several techniques including: using mechanical, chemical and/or energetic fasteners at warp and weft intersections in the weave; by using various weaving techniques and fibers. Meshes can be stabilized when properly dimensioned and arranged junctions and struts of the necessary properties are used. All of these stabilized fabrics can be made of synthetic polymer materials such as ultrahigh molecular weight PE or PP and expanded PTFE.

A woven geotextile fabric utilizes a plurality of yarns including machine direction field yarns, cross machine direction field yarns, machine direction rib yarns, and cross machine direction rib yarns. The plurality of yarns is integrally woven together. The machine direction rib yarns and the cross machine direction rib yarns cooperatively define an integrated geotextile grid integrally within the woven geotextile fabric. The machine direction field yarns and the cross machine direction field yarns cooperatively define fabric areas in a field of the integrated geotextile grid generally between the machine direction rib yarns and the cross machine direction rib yarns.

The present invention is directed to a three-dimensional composite fabric including a three-dimensional woven fabric, and a nonwoven fabric arranged on a first, on a second side, or on both sides of the three-dimensional woven fabric, wherein the composite fabric retains at least 15% thickness at a compression of about 200 pounds per square foot (psf) to about 1000 pounds per square foot. Further, the present invention is directed to a method of making a three-dimensional composite fabric and a method of installing the three-dimensional composite fabric in a landfill.

Disclosed is a polyethylene yarn which enables the manufacture of a skin cooling fabric having dimensional stability and having improved weavability which enables the manufacture of a skin cooling fabric capable of providing a user with a soft tactile sensation as well as a cooling sensation, a method for manufacturing the same, and a skin cooling fabric including the same. The polyethylene yarn has a shrinkage stress at 70° C. and 100° C. of 0.005 to 0.075 g/d, respectively. Also, the polyethylene yarn has a “dry thermal shrinkage rate at 70° C.” of 0.1 to 0.5%, a “dry thermal shrinkage rate at 100° C.” of 0.5 to 1.5%, and a “wet thermal shrinkage rate at 100° C.” of 0.1 to 1%.
