PVC Coated Fabric for Trampoline

Introduction

Trampolines are the most common recreational and fitness facilities. Whether it is a household trampoline or a commercial trampoline, its core material cannot do without PVC coated fabric. The performance of PVC-coated fabric directly determines the safety, durability and market competitiveness of trampolines. PVC coated fabric is a composite material made by coating PVC resin on the surface of high-strength polyester fiber base fabric. Its unique physical and chemical properties perfectly meet the usage requirements of trampolines.

Why is PVC coated fabric the preferred material for trampoline manufacturing?

Tear resistance and load-bearing capacity

The base fabric of PVC coated fabric is usually made of 600D-1200D high-density polyester filament, which is processed by biaxial weaving technology, and its tensile strength can reach over 5000N/5cm. It has passed the EN 71-14 international standard test and can withstand a continuous impact load of more than 200kg. It can be bounced 100,000 times repeatedly without damage.

All-weather resistance performance

UV stabilizers were added to the PVC coating. In the accelerated aging test, the strength retention rate was over 90% after 500 hours of exposure.

In addition, PVC coated fabrics remain flexible in an environment ranging from -40℃ to +100℃, without experiencing low-temperature brittleness or high-temperature softening.

The service life is extended by more than 50%

PVC coated fabric has been verified through salt spray tests. Its corrosion resistance is three times that of ordinary materials, and its outdoor service life can reach 8 to 10 years. A certain trampoline brand uses 0.55mm thick PVC fabric. The product warranty period has been extended from 3 years to 6 years, and the after-sales maintenance rate has decreased by 62%.

Security performance upgrade

In order for children to have fun and parents to rest assured, the surface of the PVC coating has undergone anti-slip treatment, with a friction coefficient of ≥0.6 (DIN 51130 standard), which can effectively prevent users from slipping. The puncture resistance design of PVC coated fabric can prevent accidental damage.

Most importantly, the PVC-coated fabric has also added a flame-retardant option, meeting the EN13501-1 B1 grade flame-retardant standard, and is particularly suitable for use in commercial playgrounds.

Conclusion

The characteristics of PVC-coated fabric determine that it is the most suitable material for trampolines. With it, you don't have to worry about security issues or usage problems. The performance of materials determines the performance of the end product, so one must be cautious when choosing trampoline materials. We must put the safety of users first.
