Tech/Engineering - Textiles / Clothing / Fashion / tessuti
English term or phrase: double-backed
Sto traducendo un testo che parla delle diverse caratteristiche di diversi tipi di tessuti e materiali tessili (cotone, lana, seta...)

Il testo dice:

"Woven fabrics are made up of a weft - the yarn going across the width of the fabric - and a warp - the yarn going down the length of the loom. The side of the fabric where the wefts are ***double-backed*** to form a non-fraying edge is called the selvedge."

Qualcuno ha un'idea su come rendere quest'espressione in italiano?
Grazie anticipatamente! :)
