Process
Our Waterproof & Breathable Technologies
Our waterproof technologies are methods of bonding or laminating materials together. These use heat to create a bond between two materials. However, our lamination developments differ in the specific method of application of heat and adhesive. There are a lot of variables to consider during bounding or lamination processes to obtain the requested strength and appearance.
Why Lamination
Sustainable
Low MOQs
Strength
Functionality
This process provides additional functionality and versatility with fabric on one side and non-woven on the other, fabric on both sides, and many variations of fabric combinations, creating composites including foams, films, and knits. These combined composite materials will have properties and characteristics that the individual layers would not have by themselves.
Flamebounding
Flame lamination is a textile process used to bond two or more layers of fabric using heat and flame. In this process, a layer of foam is applied to one of the fabrics, and then the two fabrics are fed through a bounding installation that applies a controlled flame to the thermoplastic layer. The heat from the flame melts the foamlayer, causing it to bond with the other fabric. The result is a strong, durable bond between the two fabrics that is water-resistant and often used in applications such as shoe linings, sportswear, upholstery, and many more. Flame lamination is a fast and efficient process that allows for precise control of the bond strength and is often preferred over other bonding methods for its speed and accuracy.

Dotlamination
Dotlamination is a process used to bond fabrics together using heat and adhesive. In this process, a thin layer of adhesive is applied to the surface of one fabric, and then a second fabric is pressed onto it. The fabrics are then subjected to heat and pressure, causing the adhesive to bond the two layers together in a pattern of small dots or circles. This creates a textured effect on the surface of the fabric, which can be used to add design elements or improve the durability of the fabric. Dot lamination is commonly used in the production of outerwear or workwear, such as jackets and raincoats, to create a waterproof or water-resistant barrier.
