Description
Woven & Non-Woven Conservation Fabrics
These highly functional technical fabrics are not decorative covers; rather, they act as support structures, physical barriers, or water-transport layers during delicate wet treatments.
- Polyester Interleaving (Reemay & Hollytex): Smooth, non-woven spunbonded polyester sheets. They are exceptionally strong, chemically inert, and completely non-stick. Conservators place them between fragile paper layers during wet baths, leaf casting, or lining procedures to support the wet document safely.
- Stabiltex / Tetex: An ultra-fine, sheer, and transparent monofilament polyester fabric. It is used to encapsulate extremely fragile textiles or to overlay crumbling documents, reinforcing them without obscuring text or design.
- Lining Canvases & Linens: Heavy-weight, stable fabrics used to line and stabilize the backs of structural oil paintings or oversized wall maps during structural stabilization.
