More details

Carpets are traditionally coated by applying a high grammage thermoplastic powder to the back of the carpet. The composition of the powder can vary depending on the desired function, allowing different mechanical and functional properties to be achieved.

After application, the powder is heated in a targeted manner until it melts and forms a stable, even layer. It is then recooled using a calender or flatbed system to fuse the coating permanently and ensure high product quality.

The technology is suitable for coating carpets as rolled goods as well as for anti-slip finishes. It is also used in the production of semifinished products for the automotive industry and offers versatile, durable and economical solutions for various applications.
