EMBOSSED FABRICS

摘要

A fabric suitable for embossing to form a pattern thereon comprises a substrate (10) of a thermo-plastic material which carries a coating of fibres (11) such that under the application of heat and pressure the fibres may be compressed into the substrate. The fibres are coloured and the substrate is either colourless or of a colour which contrasts with the fibres. When the fibres are compressed into the substrate, the latter is at least partially revealed so as to produce an area (12) of colour which contrasts with the fibres adjacent to such area.
