ORLUX

ORLUX is a new self-adhesive upper reinforcing material particularly suitable for men's footwear.

This new material should be applied to those areas of the upper, which might result in wrinkles after lasting.

In the case of very lightweight leathers, it is suggested that ORLUX is applied the lining in order to avoid the possibility of print throught on to the upper.
The material can also be skived.
ORLUX in available in two different weights (6/10 and 7/10). Rolls are 50 metre long by 1.5 metre wide. It is available in black or beige colours
   
MAXIM AT

MAXIM-AT is a duel adhesive material. It is self adhesive on one side and thermo adhesive on the other

The self-adhesive side is applied to the upper and the thermo adhesive side is bonded to the lining as it passes through the Heat Setting Operation, whilst under tension.

The upper and lining will be securely combined, helping to reduce wrinkles and possible problems caused by print through.

   

MAXIM TT

MAXIM-TT material has a thermo adhesive coating applies to both sides and is supplied with a protecting paper to side which is to be combined at a later stage to the lining.

MAXIM-AT and MAXIM-TT are available in two different weights. (Light and heavy).

Available colours are black and white
Rolls are 50 metre long by 1.5 metre wide.

   
GSA

GSA is a thermoplastic film form adhesive, protected by silicone paper. This type of adhesive film is ideal for combining different material.

This film form adhesive material should be applied to the inside of the upper, where the counter ends. It can also be applied to the area around the top-line of the shoe.
In this way the counter does not mark the upper, even when it is made of kid or other types of soft leathers.

By applying the film-form adhesive to the top-line of the shoe upper the G.S.A. film bonds the shoe upper and lining together, when it is processed through the Heat Setting Machine.
In this way the upper conforms perfectly to the shape of the last.

G.S.A. film form adhesive also has many other useful applications in the upper preparation / assembling area. E.g trims.

Superflex srl is one of the oldest Italian companies producing moulded heel counters for shoes. The Superflex Group is specialized in the production of self-adhesive and thermo adhesive stiffeners.
