Quality as the starting point
Fulflex elastic rubber tapes are engineered to deliver consistent stretch, recovery, and comfort even in demanding conditions. They are designed to retain their performance through repeated wash cycles, exposure to heat, and daily wear, while keeping seams slim and comfortable.

This focus on quality shows up in details that matter on the production floor and in the finished product:
• Stable stretch and recovery that maintains fit
• Zero or minimal shrinkage in wet or dry conditions
• Resistance to washing, saline water, chlorine, and common skin-contact chemicals in apparel and PPE uses

For hygiene and diaper applications, elastic solutions are tuned for consistent force across a wide elongation range so that the product holds securely without leaving red marks on delicate skin.
Across these categories, quality is not just a claim. It is built into the material choice, process design and testing for each product family.

Customisation built around your application
Every brand and converter has a different requirement for stretch, ...
... modulus, feel and processability. Fulflex addresses this with a high level of customisation across its elastic portfolio.

For elastic rubber tapes and threads, customers can work with a wide choice of:
• Widths and thickness ranges
• Cross sections, from thin flat tapes to ribbed or textured formats
• Modulus and force levels tuned to their product design
• Color options aligned with brand or functional needs
• Multiple ends and engineered packaging formats to suit line setups

This level of customisation helps OEMs and converters achieve the exact quality they need in underwear, sportswear, diapers, medical garments, masks, industrial covers and more, while maintaining production efficiency.

Textured, talc-free, and anti-microbial elastic options
A key Fulflex USP lies in how it combines surface design with product safety and comfort.

Textured elastic for better grip and sewing quality
Ribbed and textured elastic tapes are engineered for improved lubricity and sewing performance. They help reduce needle issues, allow smoother stitching and provide a more secure hold in the final garment or product.
In resistance bands and sports products, a special textured surface improves grip so the band does not slip during exercise, giving more control and user confidence.

Talc-free and powder-free surfaces
Certain elastic product lines, including resistance bands, are available with a powder-free surface. This avoids loose talc on the product, keeps the surface cleaner in use and reduces the risk of powder transfer onto skin or clothing.

For converters and brands, talc-free or powder-free elastic also means fewer deposits on machinery and a cleaner production environment.
Anti-microbial features for hygiene and sports

Select Fulflex resistance bands feature an antimicrobial surface along with their textured design. This added protection is especially valuable in shared gym environments, rehabilitation centers and home fitness, where repeated skin contact is the norm.

Combined with latex-free compounds in many tapes and threads, these anti-microbial and skin-friendly options support hygiene and comfort in PPE, medical, and hygiene products.

Quality assurance from lab to high volume
Behind every custom elastic solution is a strong quality assurance approach. While individual product lines differ, three elements stay constant: material consistency, process control, and application-driven testing.

• Material consistency
Latex-free synthetic polyisoprene and other carefully selected polymers are used to minimise allergens and deliver stable mechanical behaviour over time.

• Application-focused performance checks
Products are evaluated for stretch and recovery, permanent set, force consistency, wash durability and compatibility with chemicals like chlorine and sunscreen, where relevant. This ensures that quality holds up not just in the lab but along the full life of the product.

This quality assurance mindset gives OEMs and converters confidence to specify Fulflex elastics in high responsibility applications such as medical braces, compression bandages, masks, diapers and premium apparel.

Turning precision into long-term performance
For brands that depend on elastic performance, Fulflex offers more than a catalogue of products. It brings together:
• Quality that is proven in demanding markets
• Customisation that matches each application and production line
• Quality assurance that protects both end-user comfort and brand reputation

Whether the requirement is a textured, talc-free, anti-microbial resistance band, a custom elastic tape for PPE, or a tailored thread for hygiene or medical use, Fulflex works to align precision in design with performance in the field.
