What is Flock Film?

What is flock film?

Flock film is a velvet-like textile transfer film where short fibres, usually made of viscose, are embedded into a carrier layer. The flock film is coated with a heat-activated adhesive and mounted onto a backing. Most flock films are mounted with the adhesive side facing outwards on a polyester backing, allowing them to be cut with a cutting plotter.
For die-cutting processes, flock films can also be produced with the adhesive side facing down on a stronger paper backing.
