  •  Vilene® maintains tensile strength in situ compared with polypropylene.
  • Very little elasticity and extremely supple, providing excellent handling and knotting properties
  • Low frictional characteristics facilitating excellent knot-ying compared with polypropylene, and if
  • handled correctly Vilene® will not fray or fracture.
  • Low memory – when removed from pack, pull gently and the curves (memory) will straighten out.
