Drop-Stitch Fabric for High-Pressure Inflatables

Kezhibo’s drop-stitch fabric bonds thousands of polyester threads between two PVC-coated skins, so the panel inflates to a rigid, flat structure under pressure — the core material for stand-up paddleboards, inflatable docks, air floors and inflatable tents.

Why drop-stitch

  • Rigid when inflated – holds 10–15+ psi, feels like a hard board.
  • Airtight – 0.7–0.9 mm double-side PVC coating, 24 h pressure hold.
  • Light & packable – deflates flat for transport and storage.
  • Strong bond – high stitch density for uniform load distribution.
