What is so different about J6WBA/J6WHDA compared to woven?
The primary difference is simply the way the products are made. The J6WBA/J6WHDA materials are basically a membrane product, so they do not “pinhole” during installation, thus providing far superior negative pressures in the barn. Another important difference would be durability. The Raven poultry material can withstand the cleaning and sanitizing process for a much longer period of time due to the manufacturing process of the J6WBA/J6WHDA laminates. Woven materials are produced by weaving polyethylene ribbons with the ribbons accounting for the bulk of the material thickness. A thin layer (standard 1 mil) of coating is applied to the outside of one or two sides depending on the product. With the woven material you are basically relying on the thin layer of coating (standard 1 mil) for protection. This coating layer fractures rapidly during installation causing the material to pinhole.
