Waterproof Fabric
Waterproof fabric backing guards against spills, liquids and dew
Waterproof fabrics have revolutionised the use of textiles in design, especially across Healthcare, Aged Care, and Hospitality industries. AFL Group’s heavy-duty, breathable waterproof backing gives designers the freedom to choose fabrics without compromise.
Our advanced waterproof film offers superior performance compared to most conventional waterproof fabrics. Applied to the back of the textile, it protects the substrate from liquids and spills, eliminating issues such as odours while preserving the look and feel of a breathable material.
The waterproof film can be applied to most textiles, including textured fabrics, giving unrivalled flexibility when selecting a waterproof solution.
In independent pressure testing to AATCC 127-2008, our waterproof Vinyl backing tested over double the industry standard.
The benefits of laminating fabrics
Waterproof backing creates an extremely versatile textile that can be used for most upholstery applications, tablecloths, bags and much more.
The application allows your fabric to become impervious to spills, liquids and dew, perfect for healthcare, hospitality, commercial and senior living environments.
