Foam Laminating Applications
We have developed a line of durable fabrics for the lamination and foam forming industry. End uses for these fabrics are extensive, including: backpacks, footwear, public safety accessories, sports equipment, and medical and automotive products. We are currently knitting a variety of fabrics including: 100% nylon, nylon and Lycra® , polyester, Cordura®, CoolMax®, Kevlar®, Vectran® and Nomex®. There are important advantages to using our knitted fabrics vs. woven fabrics:
- Our knits stretch and conform to the widest variety of contours.
- Dye lot sizes for nylon and Cordura can be as low as 50 yards, giving you the opportunity to purchase w you need and avoid costly material excess associated with required large minimum purchases. We dye all nylon and Cordura in house, to your color standard.
Capabilities & Options
- Four Way Stretch
- Double Knits
