Manufacturing

Coating rubber on fabric is one of the oldest processes within the rubber industry, and still used when manufacturing AlphaTec® (formerly known as TRELLCHEM®) and VIKING™ suit materials.

At Ansell Protective Solutions (APS), the first products made from rubber coated fabric were raincoats branded "Akvarex" (when the company was part of Trelleborg). From these raincoats, more advanced products where developed and today APS is manufacturing world leading protective suits branded AlphaTec® (formerly known as TRELLCHEM®) and VIKING™.

To manufacture rubber coated fabric you need: fabric, rubber, chemicals, machinery and knowledge. Welcome into the world of rubber!
