DCX Line-1

If you are an ambitious cruising sailor and look for a low stretch material, then here is your straight forward answer: Dimension-Polyant’s DCX cruising laminates have been developed with the aim of producing a high durability fabric. Of course, we know that it is almost equally important to serve you with a sail that is easy to handle for furling purposes. Thus, our sophisticated line is produced by providing a mesh embedded in two films with a special taffeta on both ends. The mesh fabrics used offer an excellent warp stretch value as well as a high tear strength.
