Lamination & Bonding

We were asked to engineer the perfect solution for adhering Spandex and Wafer Microfiber Fabric layers in a permanent lamination that would stand up to washing.

To protect these pieces from spills and stains, we've applied FabShield.  This process laminates a layer of clear plastic film to the outside of the fabric, sealing it and protecting it from any moisture.  And for additional strength and stability, we've backed them with our FabBack soft knit backing.  This will make the materials easier to work with and fabricate into finished goods, while also giving each finished it...

These spray atomizers are given a unique look by wrapping them in fabric, but the finished products were unacceptable due to wrinkles caused by the adhesive.

This week, we received a special project from one of our neighbors involving embroidered appliques and winter jackets. FabBond® is the layered bonding of two or more layers of materials. The appliques must be hot sealed on the outside of the jackets with care to ensure that nothing happens to the fabric. In order for the appliques to be placed on the jackets they have to be positioned in the correct place and care must be take...

We received Sunbrella fabric that required FabBond®, which is layered bonding of two or more layers of materials, that is going to be used for an outdoor pool table. Sunbrella fabric has a very smooth surface, and it does not work alone for that reason. The ball rolls too fast on the Sunbrella fabric, and in order to slow down the ball as it rolls we must provide cushion to the fabric. Traditional felt (wool) provides friction...
