In both cases, this process involves the use of specialized rollers or plates with engraved or embossed patterns on their surfaces.
These rollers or plates, typically made of metal, are heated to a certain temperature to facilitate the embossing process.

From application point of view, the embossing process can be divided into next two categories: raw face material embossing or laminated complex embossing process.
In second case, the face material is pre-laminated (as example by flame lamination technology) with PUR foams or various types of distance wovens. It secures a deep, 3D effect of processed material.
