Method for manufacturing multilayered coated fabric for personal protective equipment

A method of manufacturing a coated fabric, the method comprising:

• applying a base coating layer formulation, the base coating layer defining a smooth coating to resist liquid penetration to the fabric;
• applying a middle foam coating layer formulation on at least a portion of the base coating layer, the middle foam layer defining a middle layer foam density and the middle foam layer being configured to absorb at least a portion of liquid;
• and
• applying an outer foam coating layer formulation on at least a portion of the middle foam coating layer, the outer foam layer defining an outer layer foam density and the outer foam layer being configured with holes to allow liquid to penetrate to the middle foam layer, such that the outer foam layer increases the gripping ability and abrasion resistance of the coated fabric,
• wherein the middle layer foam density is from 0.25 kg/L to 0.6 kg/L, and
• wherein the middle layer foam density is less than the outer layer foam density.
