Flock fabric

This two-layer flock fabric consists of a polyester base backing with a short, dense pile of nylon or polyester fibers electrostatically bonded to the surface. The pile height typically ranges from 0.5mm to 1.2mm, with a weight of 280 to 320 grams per square meter. The fabric is manufactured using direct flocking techniques, resulting in a uniform surface with minimal shedding. It meets standard flammability requirements for household textiles in the EU and North America, though no specific certification is listed in the source.

The base material is 100% polyester, and the flock fibers are typically 100% nylon, though polyester flock variants are also common in this category. The backing is woven for dimensional stability, and the adhesive layer is solvent-free, complying with REACH regulations for textile binders. This fabric is increasingly replacing chenille in upholstery due to its lower cost, better abrasion resistance, and easier cleaning. It is not flame-retardant by default but can be treated upon request with standard topical finishes.

It is primarily used in sofa upholstery, car seat covers, cushions, and headliners. Buyers include furniture manufacturers in Europe and North America, automotive aftermarket suppliers, and home textile distributors. Packaging is in polybag inner layers with outer plastic wrapping. Standard bulk shipment is 13,000 to 13,500 meters per 20-foot container, with higher volumes possible in 40-foot containers. Lead time and minimum order quantity are not specified and must be confirmed directly with the supplier.
