Discover the possibilities our solutions unlock:
Mobility & Transport Textiles
Our solutions enable the production of high-performance textiles designed for mobility and transport industries. This includes technical fabrics for automotive, aviation, and rail applications that meet the highest safety and durability standards.
We also support the manufacturing of conveyor belts for logistics, the food industry, and airport systems, as well as driving belts engineered for automotive and steel sector requirements — all built for reliable, long-term use in challenging environments.
Construction & Architecture
Matthews Engineering delivers solutions for the production of technical textiles that reinforce and protect buildings and structures. Our technology enables the manufacture of construction and architecture textiles that meet the highest demands for durability and functionality.
This includes robust PVC, PU, and PTFE fabrics designed for buildings and roofing applications, as well as membranes tailored for reservoirs, roofing systems, and industrial doors — ensuring reliable performance in structural and environmental conditions.
Medical, Hygiene & Protective Textiles
Our advanced machinery supports the production of medical and hygiene textiles that meet strict regulatory and quality standards.
We also enable manufacturers to create functional textiles and protective clothing that safeguard individuals in healthcare, industrial, and hazardous environments — delivering materials that combine precision, safety, and comfort.
Outdoor, Leisure & Advertising
We provide technology that powers the creation of durable, weather-resistant textiles for outdoor, leisure, and promotional use. From sport and outdoor fabrics to PVC tarpaulins and side curtains for trucks, our systems ensure resilience and longevity.
Additionally, we enable the production of tents, blinds, billboards, boat covers, and inflatable products — materials designed to perform reliably while withstanding the challenges of outdoor exposure.
Industrial & Specialty Applications
Matthews Engineering offers custom solutions that address the unique requirements of industrial and specialty textile production. Our equipment enables the manufacture of industrial filter media and technical membranes built for critical operational environments.
We also support the creation of printing blankets, artificial leather, and footwear textiles, along with special coated fabrics engineered for unique or highly specialized applications where precision and quality are essential.
Coating Solutions for Technical Textiles
Versatile Coating Lines for Superior Performance
Matthews Engineering delivers precision coating systems designed to produce high-quality finishes across a wide variety of technical textile substrates.
Our solutions enable reliable coating on banner fabrics, membranes, tarpaulins, artificial leather, conveyor belts, and more. With flexible working widths ranging from 1,400 mm to 5,400 mm, our systems are adaptable to your specific production needs.
Each line is engineered for accuracy, consistency, and repeatability — ensuring superior coating weights and flawless results with every run.
Seamless Integration of Complex Materials
Laminating Lines for Multi-Layer Solutions
Our advanced laminating lines empower you to create robust multi-layer technical textiles with ease. Whether combining PVC or PU films with textile webs or constructing heavy-duty laminates for conveyor belt applications, Matthews Engineering provides the flexibility you need.
Our machinery accommodates working widths from 1,400 mm to 5,400 mm and is engineered for strength, high line forces, and durability — enabling reliable performance even in the most demanding industrial environments.
Elevate Function and Aesthetics
Embossing and Smoothing Technologies
Matthews Engineering embossing and smoothing solutions give technical textiles the performance and design edge industries demand. Our equipment creates precise three-dimensional textures and refined finishes that enhance both the functional and visual qualities of materials.
Ideal for artificial leather, industrial and conveyor belts, membranes, and protective fabrics, our technologies help you achieve superior product differentiation through custom textures, matting, or smoothing.
Unmatched Precision for Complex Requirements
Calender Coating and Specialized Lines
Our calender coating lines set the standard for high-precision technical textile production. Matthews Engineering melt-roll calender systems and specialized combined lines deliver exceptional coating performance for open and closed woven or knitted fabrics.
These solutions are ideal for industrial, architectural, and specialty applications where technical and aesthetic specifications are critical. We integrate embossing, lacquering, and pre-coating stages as needed, enabling seamless production workflows that meet even the most complex requirements.
