Elcam upholstery materials: innovation in the service of comfort

The history of Elcam, a company specialised in the production and transformation of padding materials, began in the 1970's in Brianza, years of great entrepreneurial ferment. During this period the company was able to establish itself in an increasingly demanding market, positioning itself today among the leading companies in the sector.  In fact, Elcam has always set its production and processing to high quality standards, also focusing on continuous research into the most innovative materials, one of the company's primary objectives.
Among its most innovative products are Solotex, SoloFlex, SoloSoff and Waterproof.

 

Solotex©: an innovative, high-performance product


Solotex© is an innovative product of the latest generation, an elastic padding which, thanks to its shape memory, is able to provide seats and backrests with excellent comfort, microclimate and lift. Indeformability, anatomicality and volume are the characteristics that best distinguish this elastic, ventilated, flexible and soft product. Solotex© guarantees performance of considerable durability, elasticity, lightness and great breathability. Moreover, being a product based on polyester fibres, Solotex© can be recycled.

 

Soloflex: a product with superior bearing characteristics


Elcam offers blends of different materials, both natural and synthetic. These blends are carefully engineered to produce fillings with unique technical characteristics that provide personalised comfort according to the customer's needs. SoloFlex is a product with superior bearing capacity and durability. It is available in different composition percentages (Memory + Solotex) and in the BS 5852 flame retardant version.  SoloFlex is extremely versatile: it can be used for backrests, seats and armrests.


 

SoloSoff: a microfibre with remarkable versatility


Another innovative product from Elcam is SoloSoff, a microfibre which, thanks to its fine denier and preformed shape, offers softness, suppleness and comfort.  SoloSoff is able to achieve the same performance as feathers and down. It is available in a BS 5852 flame retardant version.


 

Waterproof®: the perfect water repellent fabric for outdoor use


Waterproof®, a water repellent fabric exclusive to Elcam, is used specifically for outdoor production. It is a guaranteed, tested fabric, resistant to water and atmospheric agents in general, easy to maintain, of excellent quality and long-lasting. Its special processing makes Waterproof® a leader in the outdoor market, also giving it exclusive registered trademark status.
