Lamination project supported by Coraltek
Coraltek consulted a textile lamination project for a large workwear producer, that invested in a complete production plant. The goal was to add wind- and waterproof garments
to their productline. We worked in close cooperation with the client, the machine manufacturer, the adhesive producer and the breathable membrane supplier. In this partnership, we guided the manufacturing, trained the staff and developed
a vast product portfolio. Interested in consultancy for a turn key project like this? Just
contact us for more information

Applying the adhesive:
- dot pattern
- applied on the membrane
- total tension control
Winding the laminate:
A batcher is prepared on an A-frame, then the freshly produced laminates has to “cure” and goes for a third layer.
Testing of the laminate:
The produced laminated undergoes a number of tests, before and after intense washing:
- Peel strength
- Hydrostatic waterhead
- Breathability
- Water repellency
- Flex testing
- etc., etc.
Cleaner HMP-X
Schmits Chemical Solutions and Coraltek, developed a special hotmelt roller cleaner.
We offer a strong cleaner, that removes cured hotmelt parts from (engraved) rollers, even when they are carbonized and burned-in. The formulation works in conjunction
with higher temperatures and is based on “mild chemistry”. It does not contain hazardous components, neither is it listed on Restricted Substance List (MRSL), the SVHC candidate list
of REACH and the MRSL of ZDHC

Heavy duty flooring
Special lamination of heavy duty flooring using Coralbond PU
For our customer, we laminated steel plate to heavy duty multiplex using Coralbond PU and added a UV indicator to visualize the adhesive during the process. The opened fresh laminate shows a perfect transfer of the adhesive. The end-product withstands outdoors usage (all weather), heavy impact (mechanical & chemical) and carries heavy weight (mechanical stability).

– Low temperature application (130-140ºC)
– Very high initial bond
– Very fast building of strength
– Very clean application

MLE (micro emission) PUR hotmelt
Neoflex developed a range of very low emission reactive PU hotmelts. These adhesives come without the cancer warning sign because the MDI content is below 0,1%.
Performance is given and now also safety at your work spot
Bio-based flame retardant
Schmits Chemical Solutions developed a bio-based (ASTM D6866 50-85%) flame retardant agent. Producers of advanced textiles very often are asked for biodegradability
and bio-based finishes / treatments on their textiles. We offer you a suitable product
