THE MANY COLORS OF THE FLOCK

VELVET
FLOCKING
Better known as velvet, it is a process that gives the treated products a visual and tactile effect characteristic of velvet. It is obtained by applying a layer of flock to the surface of objects of different materials.
THE FLOCK
It is a powder obtained by different types of fibers - including cotton, nylon, rayon, viscose - soft, light and odorless. It is applied in different colors and sizes based on the aesthetic and functional characteristics that the product must possess.
WHY CHOOSE IT
The velvety finish obtained with flocking makes the treated product precious, giving it an aesthetic and decorative finish, qualities that are increasingly required in the production of particular accessories for fashion and in other commodity sectors.
Over time the use of this technique has increased for functional purposes since the treated products acquire useful properties in the furnishing, automotive and objects production sectors. The intrinsic qualities of the flock give the objects their anti-scratch, anti-slip, anti-condensation, anti-reflection, anti-noise and anti-vibration functions.
