Abstract: Provided is a fusion-bondable surface fastener which includes a surface fastener and a fusion-bondable film partly fixed to the surface fastener. The surface fastener includes a base fabric made of a knitted or woven fabric and has fastening elements outwardly extending from base fabric, where the base fabric has a first region, a second region and a third region each of which have fastening elements. In the first region, the fastening elements are overlaid with the fusion-bondable film and the fusion-bondable film is fusion-bonded to the surface fastener. In the second region the fastening elements are overlaid with the fusion-bondable film and the fusion-bondable film is not fusion-bonded to the surface fastener In the third region the fastening elements are not overlaid with the fusion-bondable film. The first region and the second region form a fusion-bondable area.

Abstract: A fusion-bondable surface fastener which is easily and efficiently fusion-bondable to an adherend such as floor carpet and shows an improved fusion-bonding strength. The fusion-bondable surface fastener comprises a surface fastener, which comprises a base fabric 13 made of a knitted or woven fabric and fastening elements 12 outwardly extending from the base fabric 13, and a fusion-bondable film 11 partly fixed to the surface fastener. The fusion-bondable surface fastener has a region A in which the fastening elements 12 are overlaid with the fusion-bondable film 11 and the fusion-bondable film 11 is fusion-bonded to the surface fastener; a region B in which the fastening elements 12 are overlaid with the fusion-bondable film 11 and the fusion-bondable film 11 is not fusion-bonded to the surface fastener; and a region C in which the fastening elements 12 are not overlaid with the fusion-bondable film 11.
