Abstract: In cite{Schweigert:2019zwt} it was shown how string-net spaces for the Cardy bulk algebra in the Drinfeld center $mathsfZ(mathsfC)$ of a modular tensor category $mathsfC$ give rise to a consistent set of correlators. We extend their results to include open-closed world sheets and allow for more general field algebras, which come in the form of $(mathsfC|mathsfZ(mathsfC))$-Cardy algebras. To be more precise, we show that a set of fundamental string-nets with input data from a $(mathsfC|mathsfZ(mathsfC))$-Cardy algebra gives rise to a solution of the sewing constraints formulated in cite{Kong_2014} and that any set of fundamental string-nets solving the sewing constraints determine a $(mathsfC|mathsfZ(mathsfC))$-Cardy algebra up to isomorphism. Hence we give an alternative proof of the results in cite{Kong_2014} in terms of string-nets.
