What's the Difference Between Woven and Non-Woven Moving Pads?
Moving pads, also known as moving blankets, are used to make sure a move more easy. The pads help protect furniture, appliances and quality items while moving items out of the house and during transit in the the back of the truck.
Selecting the right moving blanket can be tricky. Consider the type of fabric and binding used to make the blanket. Those qualities will help you determine the pad’s durability and intended use.
Woven Moving Pads
Woven fabrics and bindings work to make high quality moving blankets designed to use over and over again. These pads are heavier and more durable compared to non-woven materials. However, woven fabrics can be made from cotton, a cotton and polyester mix and polyester. The the material around the outside edge of the blanket, are also woven.
