Press Release Body = Traditionally Metflex have coated Nitrile (NR) or
Epichlorohydrin (EPDM), onto Polyester fabric using our Spread Coating plant.

Following demand from the marketplace we have successfully developed the ability to
very accurately coat Cotton and other fabrics with various rubbers.

Working with companies weaving cloth in the UK and Europe, Metflex is able to source
base fabric, which is then coated with rubber using our unique process. Many years
ago Metflex looked at Calendering of rubber onto fabric, but chose and alternative
route, which gives us a very tight dimensional control on coated fabric thickness.

As well as using fabric in house, Metflex has recently started exporting spread
coated fabric to China, as well as supplying the UK domestic market.
