Process for manufacturing floor or wall coverings, and associated coverings

Abstract

A process for manufacturing a floor or wall covering is provided. The floor or wall covering has at least one base layer (2) that is made of polymer materials and has an upper face (2a) and a lower face (2b), the upper face having a predefined relief pattern. process including at least the steps of a) advancing the base layer (2); b) controlling numerical control deposition means to deposit a fluid adhesive material (4a, 4b) on the upper face (2a) of the base layer (2) according to the predefined relief pattern; c) depositing material particles (3a, 3b) on the fluid adhesive material (4a, 4b); and d) crosslinking the deposited fluid adhesive material (4a, 4b) to bond the material particles (3a, 3b) to the base layer (2) and form the predefined relief pattern.
