the non slip fabric is a great and inexpensive product to prevent slippage of objects. At present we produce three different grades, all with diverse non skid properties. All anti slip fabric materials are produced in the same method using the same construction process; A polyester mesh is constructed, the shape of the mesh and the gap between strands will determine the ultimate appearance of the fabric. The polyester mesh provides the strength and stability that the soft upper needs. The polyester mesh is wound onto huge master reels, the reels are then loaded onto an offwind bar. The polyester mesh is passed through a warm bath of liquid, non slip plastic foam, the liquid forms on the mesh. The now non slip mesh (now a fabric) passes through a low bake oven. The oven helps to solidify the mesh, however, the plastic retains its foamed properties. The type of plastic used, dwell time in bath etc all determine the end thickness and density.
