Coated Non-Woven Fabrics

Coated Non-Woven Fabrics

Eastex Products offers coated non-woven fabric solutions that bring together performance, adaptability, and value. By applying advanced coatings to non-woven substrates, these materials deliver targeted features such as fluid resistance, abrasion protection, and cleanability. From Polysil fabric to alternatives for vegan leather fabrics, Eastex supports a broad range of industries that require dependable surface performance and material integrity.

Non-woven fabrics are made by bonding fibers together through chemical, mechanical, or thermal processes. Unlike woven or knitted fabrics, they do not rely on yarns interlacing in a pattern. This structure allows for lightweight, consistent, and cost-efficient materials.

When a coating is applied, the fabric gains specific qualities such as waterproofing, fire resistance, antimicrobial action, or softness. These coatings may include polyurethane (PU), silicone, acrylic, or other polymer-based compounds. Eastex’s capabilities allow for precise pairing of substrate and coating to meet the performance goals of each application.

  • Waterproof & Fluid-ProofCoated surfaces form a reliable barrier against water, oils, and chemicals, making them essential for medical drapes, outdoor canopies, hygiene products, and marine applications.
  • Customizable Functional PerformanceFunctional coatings deliver UV resistance, flame retardancy, antimicrobial defense, or anti-static behavior—valuable in PPE, cleanroom garments, agricultural covers, and aerospace components.
