Lamination

Lamination is a finishing process where several layers of material is bonded to the back of fabrics to enhance the fabrics’ technical performance and improve upholstery properties.

Our lamination services include flame lamination and glue lamination, and our innovative techniques and high-end equipment allow us to work with various thicknesses, textures and materials.

Benefits

Lamination is used for multiple purposes and reasons primarily to boost the fabric’s technical properties such as for example the comfort, strength and stability of the fabric. Lamination can also compensates for uneven or sharp components, blocks liquids and improves the fabric’s acoustic properties.

The soft foam backing added to the fabric in the lamination process provides superior flexibility allowing the laminated fabrics to be readily used for curved or complex furniture designs without compromising the quality, performance or aesthetic value of the fabric.
