Velvet-like fiber texture coating
Key Benefits of Flocking
About Flocking
Flocking applies tiny fiber particles to create a velvet-like texture that adds incredible tactile luxury to packaging surfaces.
Velvet Without Fabric
Flocking applies millions of tiny fibers to create velvet-like surfaces on packaging. The resulting texture looks and feels like fabric, adding dramatic tactile luxury to boxes, inserts, and packaging components.
The Flocking Process
Adhesive is applied to surfaces, then fine fibers are electrostatically charged and embedded vertically into the adhesive. This creates dense, uniform fiber coverage with consistent texture and appearance.
Applications and Colors
Flocking transforms rigid box interiors, creates luxury exterior surfaces, and adds premium feel to inserts and components. Available in numerous colors from classic black and red to custom brand shades.
