Bonded (Stitch-Free) Technology

What is Bonded (Stitch-Free) Technology

What is Bonded (Stitch-Free) Technology?

Bonding, or “stitch-free” technology, is a cutting-edge manufacturing process that joins fabric panels together using specialized adhesive films and heat, eliminating the need for traditional sewing. The process works as follows:

  • Fabric panels are precisely cut, often using lasers for perfectly clean edges.
  • A thin, thermo-sensitive adhesive film is placed between the fabric layers.
  • The layers are placed in a heat press machine that applies precise heat and pressure.
  • The adhesive melts and fuses the panels together, creating a strong, flexible, and completely flat seam without a single thread.
