Abstract: A method of treating industrial fabrics such as papermachine clothing, wherein at least one surface of the fabric, or of the yarns, fibres, strips or membranes from which such a fabric is made, is modified by using high energy electromagnetic radiation, from excimer or ablation lasers. This may be used to alter the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties of the surface by etching on a micron scale. Selective masking at any desired scale may be used.

Abstract: A fabric employed in a web forming apparatus to form a patterned fibrous web includes at least one layer of yarns oriented in first and second directions and being woven to provide a lattice that separates a plurality of systematically distributed woven areas with long yarn floats in a predetermined configuration that is defined by the pattern of the continuous lattice and with the systematically distributed woven areas including at least three yarns oriented in each of the first and second directions.
