With more support and assistance provided to the driver a pleasant and comfortable interior adds positively to the additional leisure time afforded to the driving experience. Also, comfort and décor are value adding features for SUV, trains, buses and aerospace interiors. Madaline®, brings light weight and attractive fabric coverings for vehicle interiors. With its high strength vs light weight, Madaline® supports essential fuel savings requirements. Madaline® is a stable, strong and durable material that is efficiently cut, readily conforms to surface contours and is receptive to adhesion processes.
Madaline® is a flexible but stable fabric with a firm hand which can be used as interior coverings, for carpets and floor mats, on indication panels and in baggage compartments. Additionally, Madaline® has unique acoustic properties therefore, its use in high decibel regions as a sound barrier makes for a more enjoyable journey.
Madaline can be combined in composites with other nonwovens by thermal, adhesive or sonic bonding and also by mechanical means.
Treatments include fire-retardant, hydrophobic, printing, dyeing and flocking applications.
Madaline® also has excellent abrasion resistance and does not lint or peel. It is stain resistant, cleanable, strong, sturdy and stable for the interaction with passengers.
No chemical additives nor VOC (volatile organic compounds) are present in the Madaline® process and its strength to weight efficiency brings fuel savings to the vehicle
