Abstract
An absorbent fabric material of synthetic endless fibers, in particular for use in clinical areas and also clean room areas and also in company and public washrooms, in which, in order to simultaneously achieve absorbent high absorbency and handling acceptance the fiber of the fabric material is texturizable and the woven material has an open woven structure in which longer non bound in thread sections (3, 6) alternate with firmly bound in thread sections (4, 5 or 7, 8 respectively) which thereby generate capillary-like interstitial spaces between the fibers.
