TeXtreme® Woven Spread Tow Bio-Based Flax Fabrics 

TeXtreme® Bio-based Flax offers a renewable reinforcement solution for composite applications where sustainability, lightweight performance, and structural reliability are key. Made from natural flax fibers arranged using TeXtreme® Spread Tow Thin-Ply Technology, these fabrics combine environmental responsibility with the mechanical efficiency required for modern high-performance components. 

Available in both 0/90 and +/- 45 fiber orientations, TeXtreme® Bio-based Flax provides directional stiffness and impact resistance in a lightweight format. The Spread Tow architecture eliminates the twisted yarns typically found in natural fiber reinforcements, maintaining straighter fibers for improved fiber alignment, material uniformity, and processing efficiency. TeXtreme® Bio-based Flax can also be used to achieve improved surface smoothness and offers excellent dampening properties, further enhancing performance in vibration-sensitive or acoustic applications.

Supplied in dry form, TeXtreme® Bio-based Flax is suitable for a range of composite manufacturing methods. Its stable structure supports precise placement and contributes to reduced material waste, making it ideal for applications where both strength and sustainability are essential.

Key Benefits

  •  Natural flax fibers provide a renewable, bio-based alternative without compromising performance
  • Straight fiber architecture minimizes waviness and maximizes structural integrity
  • Directional fiber orientations enable tailored mechanical properties for specific load paths
  • Excellent impact resistance, surface quality, and dampening support multi-functional designs
  • Stable handling simplifies layup and enhances processing consistency
