TPU coated polyester is a high-performance flexible material engineered for demanding industrial and commercial applications. The TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) coating bonds tightly to the polyester base fabric, creating a waterproof, tear-resistant surface that holds up in harsh environments.
What makes our TPU coated polyester fabric stand out is its balance of durability and flexibility. Unlike PVC, TPU is more environmentally friendly — it's recyclable and produces fewer harmful emissions during production. The coating maintains elasticity across a wide temperature range (-40°C to 70°C), so it won't crack in cold weather or soften in extreme heat.

If you need something tougher, we also offer heavy duty TPU coated polyester options with reinforced polyester scrim for extra tear strength.
Common Applications
TPU coated polyester is preferred in applications where environmental responsibility matters as much as performance:
Flexible containers — IBC liner bags, storage bladders, and portable water tanks. TPU's food-grade compatibility makes it suitable for potable water and dry goods.
Pool and aquaculture liners — The material's waterproofing and resistance to algae and chemicals keep pools, ponds, and fish farms sealed long-term.
Industrial covers and containment — Secondary containment barriers, equipment covers, and spill decks in factories and workshops.
Medical and hygiene products — Mattress protectors, inflatable medical devices, and hospital mattress covers benefit from TPU's waterproof yet breathable properties.
Sports and recreation — Inflatable boats, SUP boards, and jumping pillows use TPU coated fabric for its puncture resistance and air retention.
