"Single side sticky stitchbond fabric" refers to a type of nonwoven fabric—stitchbond—that has adhesive applied to one side, making it self-adhesive for easy application. It’s used in a variety of industries for insulation backing, construction layers, automotive interiors, waterproofing membranes, and even crafts or packaging.
🔍 What Is Stitchbond Fabric?Stitchbond fabric is made by stitching together layers of fibers (usually polyester) with a polyester yarn. It’s known for being:
Durable
Flexible
Tear-resistant
Breathable
Cost-effective
When this fabric is made sticky on one side, it's usually coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA), and then protected with a release liner (like a peel-off paper or film).
This makes installation simple:
Peel the liner
Stick in place
No glue or staples needed
Application | Purpose |
---|---|
Roofing membranes | Reinforcement & bonding layer |
Waterproofing systems | Acts as a carrier or reinforcing layer |
Foam lamination | Adheres foam to other materials |
Insulation backing | Helps bond to walls or floors |
Automotive | Trim, lining, or insulation layers |
Upholstery/Crafts | For creating layered fabric panels or lining |
Easy to apply (peel-and-stick)
Strong and flexible
Often compatible with thermal lamination
Works well with foams, plastics, and construction materials
Adhesive type: Acrylic or rubber-based (acrylic tends to have better durability and heat resistance)
Temperature range: Make sure it holds in your working environment
Thickness & weight: Match to your application needs
UV/chemical resistance: Especially important in outdoor or industrial use
