Pyrox fabrics are made from a blend of hydrolysis resistant PPS and abrasion resistant PET materials. Like the entire CleanWeave product family, Pyrox and PyroxHigh are produced from SynStron yarn, a material developed by Voith and designed specifically for the challenging conditions of the dryer section.

Fabric structure

The proven weave structure of CleanWeave dryer fabrics is incorporated in Pyrox and PyroxHigh. It is said to offer a low internal void volume and minimal yarn crossover points, ensuring contamination within the fabric to be reduced.

The compact fabric structure simplifies cleaning of the surface to ensure constant permeability, according to the manufacturer. All CleanWeave products from Voith are designed to have a stable, easy-to-clean fabric structure, which is said to ensure that the fabric maintains close to its original air permeability, maximizing drying and sheet handling over its entire service life.
