Fabric Based Laminates (SRBF)

Fabric based laminates (sometimes referred to as SRBFs or synthetic resin bonded fabrics) are a range of high-strength, high-temperature, electrically insulating materials. Manufactured using high-pressure lamination, layers of cotton fabric are interspersed with synthetic phenolic resins to create a rigid, lightweight, and wear-resistant product.
Typically known for their outstanding electrical strength and insulating properties, fabric-based laminates are an ideal solution for low-voltage applications requiring a rigid, dimensionally stable material. Fabric laminates are frequently used in place of plastic and metallic counterparts due to their low creep and corrosion-resistant nature.
All our laminates are available either by the sheet, cut to size, or manufactured into complex components as required. Their rigidity means they can be processed using the same in-house machinery used to convert our plastic sheet materials, including CNC milling, CNC sawing, routing, drilling and turning.
