A papermaking fabric, such as a press felt, has a paper contacting surface (15) provided by a layer (11) which includes a high proportion of fibrillatable fibres (16) to provide a fine structure of the surface (15). The fibrillatable fibres may comprise regenerated cellulose fibres, or be of polypropylene or polyester. Fibrillation of the fibres may be effected before or after installation, by hydroentanglement and/or mechanical pressure. |
