SuperFabric for Automotive Seats & Other Interior Applications
SuperFabric® materials are available in rolls or sheets. Item numbers that begin with 6 are roll items and item numbers that begin with 7 are sheet items. The measurements indicate the approximate areas of printed guard plates, not the sizes of the fabric they are printed on. Black edges indicate approximate areas of unprinted fabric.
SuperFabric® technology starts with a fabric and overlays it with tiny plates (“guard plates”) in a specific arrangement. The gaps between guard plates allow complete flexibility. The geometry, thickness, and size of the guard plates, as well as the fabric, can be varied depending on the desired attributes. SuperFabric® materials are designed to deliver a range of performance features such as abrasion resistance, stain resistance, quick drying, weight reduction and more.
The key to this remarkable material is the fact that locally, the guard plates are hard. Globally, the plates allow full motion which gives SuperFabric® a feel like traditional fabrics.
SuperFabric® drying is the result of a 3-pronged system that quickly dries while keeping the elements on the outside and contents dry on the inside. Impervious guard plates, repellent fabric, and optional waterproof breathable membranes are part of the Speed Dry advantage.
The guard plates are ready to fend off rock, ice, brush, debris, scuffs, and scrapes. The guard plates don’t just look pretty, they perform day in and day out. SuperFabric® materials won’t snag like knit fabrics. SuperFabric® is used in demanding applications that require abrasion resistance, such as motorcycle apparel, ski and snowboard apparel, footwear, and more.
Breathability: the ability of a fabric or material to transmit air and moisture. Lots of materials are, of course, breathable. However, being breathable while still being water resistant is a much taller order. By their inherent construction, SuperFabric® materials are both air breathing and water repellent.
SuperFabric® is highly resistant to stains from mud, dirt, grease, and liquids such as oil, sauces, and more. This ALTAI™ boot, made with SuperFabric® material, resists mud and is easy to rinse clean with a garden hose or under a running faucet.
