Industries and Applications N/A The fibers used to produce RO-Flow™ Permeate Carrier Fabrics are custom developed for drinking water, desalination, dairy products, wine and even natural gas. Applications include microfiltration, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. Applications for reverse osmosis water purification range from municipal treatment facilities to naval vessels. While the purification of brackish water and saltwater is the primary application for reverse osmosis, the process can also be used in a number of other industries, including food, beverage and pharmaceutical processing.
Made In The USA N/A Choose Shawmut’s RO-Flow™ with confidence, knowing that it’s proudly made in the USA. Our dedication to excellence extends to the heart of our operations, contributing to the strength and reliability of American manufacturing.
Advanced Material Solutions N/A Shawmut manufactures RO-Flow™ high-performance water filtration permeate carrier fabrics using antimony-free, bicomponent yarn in our state-of-the-art Park Avenue Technical Center in Burlington, North Carolina.

Our dedication to innovation goes beyond fabrication, integrating advanced technology like digital rapid inspection with image processing, defect detection, and machine learning. This guarantees unmatched quality control, complementing our extensive engineering experience to deliver standard and customized solutions tailored precisely to your needs.

Built to Your Specifications N/A Shawmut's world-class design, engineering, technical, and program management staff are available for customer collaboration and accelerated product development to manufacture RO-Flow™ to meet your specifications. In-house pressure testing to validate constructions with specific membrane service requirements (pressure/flow rates) is available.
Features and Benefits N/A
  • Unrivaled Channel Integrity: RO-Flow™ fabrics boast maximum channel integrity, retaining strength and durability even after rigorous use. This resilience translates to a consistently high flow rate over an extended service life.
  • Optimized Construction: Our fabrics can be constructed with a thinner profile, allowing for increased wraps around the membrane. Wider channels on RO-Flow™ Permeate Carriers result in enhanced fluid volume output and a more efficient flow rate compared to other fabrics.
  • Hybrid Tricot Design: The innovative tricot design provides flexibility for membrane customization while maintaining exceptional channel integrity. This minimizes compression and flow loss over time, ensuring long-lasting performance.
  • Eco-Friendly Fusion: Our proprietary RO-Flow™ fabrics incorporate heat-treated bicomponent yarn, fusing fibers without the need for harsh chemicals or epoxy. This eco-friendly approach sets a new standard for safety and sustainability in water filtration.
  • In-House Pressure Testing: Rest assured; every RO-Flow™ fabric undergoes rigorous in-house pressure testing. This ensures that the fabric’s construction aligns seamlessly with specific membrane service requirements, including pressure and flow rates. Our commitment to validation guarantees optimal performance in real-world filtration scenarios.
Additional Information N/A With FDA compliance and certifications from NSF and KIWA, RO-Flow™ fabrics ensure safety and reliability in every application. Their unique design maximizes channel integrity, delivering consistently high flow rates over extended service periods. Engineered for versatility, RO-Flow™ fabrics support membrane customization while minimizing compression and flow loss.

From drinking water to desalination, dairy to natural gas, RO-Flow™ fabrics cater to diverse industries and applications. Whether in municipal treatment facilities or naval vessels, their performance remains unmatched. Join us at the forefront of water filtration technology with Shawmut's RO-Flow™ High-Performance Permeate Carrier Fabrics - the future of clean water solutions.
