Tape Edge

Mattress Tape Edge

1-6   The tape edge operation is considered to be one of the most difficult jobs in a
        bedding plant. The operator needs to sew the top quilted mattress panel
        to the side border using a binder, walking backwards as he does so. In the
        course of a day, the operator will walk about a mile backwards. After one
        side is done, the operator flips the mattress and does the other side.
        A pillowtop style mattress needs to be bound twice on each side.
