Depending on what the netting is being used for, a different wax or plastic coating can be applied in order to cover the filaments that use up the yarn. Filaments can be made from synthetic or natural fibres, depending on the end use of the fabric itself.
The type of coating applied to the netting varies based on its intended use; either a wax or plastic layer may be used to cover the yarn-consuming filaments. The material of the filaments is determined by the desired functionality of the fabric.
