Processes
Veritex uses its own mixing chamber to produce a spreadable paste from the base materials. The required colours for the pastes are produced in a separate colouring chamber, through a precise process using a spectro-photometer. The mixtures are normally first dispersed in a dissolver, and then ground to a fine consistency on a triple roller.

Two roller procedures are used at Veritex, namely, direct coating and transfer coating.
The first method is particularly suitable for coating the (heavy) fabrics used, for instance, in tarpaulins, tents and boat covers.
With this technique, coating takes place, as the name suggests, directly onto the fabric.
The second method is particularly suitable for coating (light) jerseys and fleeces such as those used, for instance, in artificial leather, and clothing. With this technique, the layer of coating is applied on a temporary (special paper) carrier, on which the fabric "is laid". The special paper often already contains a structure (grain) which is transferred to the product.
After the basis material has been coated, the product can be printed,, finished and grained before being rolled up in the make-up department according to the required roll length and width.
Most of the processes have been developed in-house by Veritex's own extensive technical department.
