About FLOCK Technology

You can imagine that in flock technology there is an electrostatic application of textile staple fibres onto various material surfaces that are covered by an adhesive. The fibres are charged in an electrostatic field and are shot into the adhesive that usually makes the other pole. Individual fibres anchor in the adhesive and thus create a velvet surface.

Flock technology directly offers several possibilities of its use. At present, a whole range of flocking techniques exists. If we choose a classical technique we have a chance to work with small, manually operated appliances (greatly favoured for their lightness and mobility, for instance in the building industry and when printing promotional logos on textile) or to make use of semi-automatic machines, possibly complete industrial lines. Transfer flock and flock foil are among the other flocking methods, their principle is based on the hot-print making of already finished flock templates.
