Forest FES Forest Easyflex System: the tape and carriers that set ripplefold depth
Easyflex by Forest, with 2026 retail prices, sizes, finishes and specifications.
What is the Forest FES Forest Easyflex System?
The Forest FES Easyflex System is a set of tape, carriers, hooks and masters that controls the depth of the folds in ripplefold drapery. It fits every Forest track and traversing system and is sold by the part. Forest Easyflex parts start at $0.35.
With Easyflex the fold depth is not fixed by the carrier spacing alone: the hook position in the tape sets it, so the same track can carry a shallow wave or a deep one. The ceiling clearance needed equals the spacing between hooks in the tape, which matters where the drapery sits close to a ceiling. Forest recommends it for ripplefold on its outdoor Tavira rail.

Where the Forest Easyflex fits
We sew ripplefold on snap tape in our own workroom; Easyflex is the option when a designer wants a specific fold depth or a deeper wave on a decorative rail. It is a detail we settle at the measure with the fabric in hand. More on fullness and fold depth on our ripplefold draperies page.
