EMPEL® Finish Applications
Custom Lamination
Our products harbor a multitude of advantages including:

Traditional Technologies
Explore our technologies that are our fundamental cornerstones for the development of our innovative solutions.

Extrusion
Molten polymer squeezed through a die to form a continuous film, which is then cooled and rolled up.

Gravure Coating
Gravure cylinder transfers coating onto a continuous film to meet customer requirements.

Embossing
A heated grain roller imparts a texture pattern onto a heated film for visual and functional properties.

Adhesive Lamination
Adhesively bonding two or more material layers into a single composite material with enhanced properties.

Spread Coating
A knife spreads a precise, thin, and uniform layer of rubber onto a fabric.

DWR Finishing
Direct water-repellent (DWR) is a fabric treatment so water will bead up, roll off and not soak in.
Partner Solutions
Haartz Family Holdings LLC provides a valuable ecosystem of complementary partner solutions.
