Industry guide
Fabrics for Rexine & Coated Fabric Makers
Base fabrics for PVC and PU coating and lamination
A coater is only as consistent as the base cloth coming into the plant. Variation in weight, width or construction shows up as uneven coating pickup, puckering, bond failure and rejected rolls. We supply PV matty, China raise and tricot to the weight, width and shade your line runs on, and keep the specification the same order after order.
What this application demands
Key requirements
Consistent weight and width
Coating lines are set up for a base weight and width. Drift between lots changes coating pickup and finished thickness, so the base has to arrive on specification every time.
The right construction for the end use
A woven matty base for stable flat goods, tricot where the rexine must stretch over shapes, and China raise where the reverse must feel soft.
Clean, even surface
Slubs, knots and uneven raising telegraph through a thin coating. The base surface decides how good the face of the rexine can look.

Questions
Frequently asked
Can you supply the same base fabric for regular monthly orders?
Yes. Once a specification is approved we hold it and supply against it on every order, so your coating settings do not have to change.
Can you develop a base fabric for a new rexine?
Yes. Tell us the finished rexine you are aiming for, its thickness, hand and end use, and we will develop and sample a base to suit it.
