CARTON WINDOW PATCHING
Polyester
not only offers a substantial price saving, but also a superior
technical performance when compared to acetate and polypropylene
for carton window / patching applications.
Previously,
Acetate was the most popular film used for carton windows,
but with the advantages which polyester has to offer, more
and more companies are now changing to polyester.
Due to
the strength of polyester it is possible to down-gauge the
film thickness offering a higher yield, in other words "more
film for your money''.
We are able to offer customers a wide range of films such
as, one or two side chemically or corona treated, thickness
ranging from 36 to 175 micron and from widths 10mm to 1524mm.
HEAT SEALABLE FILM HEAT SEALABLE PET FILMS
In addition
to their excellent sealing and heating properties (for ready-made
meals), heat sealable film can also be used for numerous other
purposes, e.g. top-sealing of fruit and vegetables packs,
pre-packed (anti-fog treated) fresh foods such as sandwiches
or products that have a strong aroma, for flowpack of the
same type of products
and for GRP.
Heat
sealable polyester film offers a one-side, co-extruded sealable
surface with excellent barrier properties. The heat sealable
side can be sealed to itself, to untreated surfaces, PVdC,
PVC, paper, aluminum foil and well as a variety of other substrates.
Because the film is so easy to use, it reduces manufacturing
costs and increases productivity dramatically in a variety
of manufacturing applications.
Either
fin seals or overlap seals may be made on conventional packaging
equipment. Polyester heat sealable film also offers superb
print adhesion (on secondary surface) and heat and chemical
resistance for excellent handling in high speed operations

HEAT
FUSIBLE TRANSFER
Fusible
heat transfers have an adhesive on one side which will be
activated by heat. The choice between a fusible and a sew-in
interfacing depends on the fabric, the degree of firmness
desired, and personal preference. Fusible transfers are great
time savers. They're easy to work with and compatible with
most fabrics. They will make a fabric slightly crisper than
a sew-in interfacing of comparable weight.
CLEAR POLYESTER FILM
Polyester optically clear film serves as a substrate for microfilm,
photographic and graphic arts, stationary, engineering reproduction
materials and many other applications where clarity is of
importance.
Recognised industry grades include
•Mylar D
•Melinex 401
•Terphane 50.01 / 40.01 series
•Hostaphan 4 series
DISPLAY BOXES
Polyester
film for use in display boxes has an anti-static coating that
is perfect for scrolling motion display boxes. Polyester film
is also the ideal medium for trade show images, window graphics,
and backlit displays. Polyester film will accept dye-based
inks and polyester laminated films include a masked, direct
positive transparency display material (for colour enlarge
ments on a clear film support from transparencies and printed
matter) which is specifically designed for backlit display
applications.
LIDDING FILMS
Lidding
Film is often composed of a printed polyester based film which
is mainly applied or sealed on top of diary products such
as yoghurt, coffee creamers, sour cream, milk rice, portion
packs for margarine and butter, also various sauces and pickels,
precooked menus with short shelflife, as well as blisterpacks
for medical articles or hardware.
Polyester
is superior because:
•Standard
films are available with peelable, high barrier and sealable
characteristics
•Sealants can be applied on a wide variety of plain,
barrier coated, and white PET films
•Anti-fog properties can be added to sealant surface
•Corona or chemical treatment for improved ink adhesion
•Tough, stiff for excellent handling in high speed operations
•Heat and chemical resistance, excellent barrier properties
•Temperature range use -40 to 204 deg C. microwaveable
FLEXIBLE
PACKAGING
PET
film is an excellent laminating substrate for flexible packaging
structures, i.e. stand-up pouches, offering excellent flex
and puncture resistance.
PET offers:
• Easy machineability
• High strength
•Dimensional stability over a broad temperature range
• Surface treatability
• Crystal clarity
• Tear resistance
• Excellent adhesion and release
• Superior printability
• Moisture and solvent resistance
• Barrier against oxygen and water vapor
Whether
your application requires flexible packaging, lidding, can
lamination, metallized packaging, or susceptors, polyester
film can be tailored for your specific end use:
•
General food packaging
• Flexible pouches
• Peelable seals
• Lids
• Snacks
• Barrier films
• Can laminations
• Vacuum insulation panels
BARRIER FILMS
Polyester films are ideal for many packaging applications,
including cookie bags, candy and tobacco wraps, lidding for
butter tubs, jelly packets, and many other flexible food,
drug and medical packages where aesthetics and package strength
must go hand-in-hand.
PET offers the best protection for flavor and freshness as
well as superior oxygen and moisture barrier properties.
DRAFTING FILM
Drafting
film is made of polyester with 1 or 2 side matt translucent
drawing surface, a perfect surface for ink, pencil or plotting
drafting techniques. Heat stable translucent drafting film
is ideal for all engineering plain paper copiers.
Polyester
drafting film is treated to reduce static, accept paint ink,
and pencil. Drafting film also removes cleanly and provides
dimensional stability. Whether you use ink or pencil, it gives
you the right amount for sharp, clean accurate lines.
Drafting
film can also be used for screen (common uses include T- shirts,
mugs, mousepads etc) and planographic processes which is used
to create magazines, books, newspapers, reports, brochures
and much more.
FLEXOGRAPHIC
PRINTING
All
sorts of materials are flexographic printed, from toothpick
wrappers to huge bags for mattresses. Films, foils, tissues,
enormous corrugated sheets, limp plastic films, glass and
textiles can be flexographic printed.Bioriented polyester
(PET) films are ideal for flexographic applications due to
good tear resistance, temperature and humidity stability,
sheet flatness and clarity.
MASKING
FILM
Polyester
film is an ideal carrier for masking membranes, because clarity,
dimensional stability and robustness are essential qualities
of a good masking film, particularly for CAD.We offer Masking
film (polymask) with a scratch resistant membrane in red or
amber with universal tack plus speed peel properties.
PRINTING
Using
polyester film as a base for colour printing is one of the
most popular uses for polyester film . Products including
picture photos have a base of polyester which is used for
colour printing, by firms such as Kodak & Fuji film.
Polyester
film has many advantages for base colour printing, including
a precise printing quality, high speed, registration accuracy,
high efficiency and high economy. When using polyester as
a base you do not need to worry about print fading, discolouring
or detoriating for a very long time.
SCREEN
PRINTING
Screen printing is arguably the most versatile of all printing
processes. It can be used to print on a wide variety of substrates,
including paper, paperboard, plastics, glass, metals, fabrics,
and many other materials, including paper, plastics, glass,
metals, nylon and cotton. Some common products from the screen
printing industry include posters, labels, decals, signage,
and all types of textiles and electronic circuit boards. The
advantage of screen printing over other print processes is
that the press can print on substrates of any shape, thickness
and size.
POLYPROPLENE
Polypropylene is exceptionally tough,with a high strength
to weight ratio and excellent resistance to many chemicals
over a wide temperature range. It can be die-cut easily,and
can be hot or cold creased to provide an intregral hinge capability
of many thousands of flexings.
Polypropylene
sheet may, subject to chemical resistance considerations,
be used over the temperature range -20 degrees Celisus to
90 +degrees Celisusin certain circumstances, intermittent
exposure up to 135 degrees Celisus is permissible.
ACETAL
Delrin®
acetal copolymer resin has high tensile strength, stiffness,
resilience, fatigue endurance, a low coefficient of friction,
and moderate toughness. It provides predictable mechanical,
chemical, and electric properties over a broad temperature
range for long periods. Good lubricity and resistance to wear
make this a good choice for bearings as well as other demanding
applications. It has low moisture absorption and is resistant
to a wide variety of solvents, including alcohols, aliphatics,
aromatics, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, oils, greases, and
gasoline.
GASKETS
Gaskets
primary purpose is to seal joints to avoid leakages.
While pure gasketing materials are mainly used for sealing,
Polymex®,while mainly used for spacing applications can
also be used where some limited sealing is required.
SPECIALIST TOOLS AND MACHINERY
We produce
inexpensive high quality tools to manufacture the above components
Proto-type to mass production quanities to any design tolerances.
POLYMEX
COLOUR CODING
Our
standard Polymex Plastic ( colour coded polyester film ) has
become increasingly recognised as a major engineering for
shimming ,spacing and insulation because it is cost effective
in operation.
It can
be fabricated easily and provides a high strength to weight
ratio , good corrosion resistance, as well as low co - efficent
of friction, excellent resistance to wear, and is also safer
than standard shimmering materials. Polymex is now available
in various sheet sizes in stock.
POLYMEX
SHIMS
At Plastic Shims & Gaskets, we have carefully monitored
customer response from all over the world. The overwhelming
conclusion is that it’s the most efficient and pliable
material for shimming between surfaces to function as a seal
and used to modify clearance on mating surfaces.
In
addition, plastic shims have a much higher strength-to-weight
ratio compared to metallic alternatives and prevent corrosion
between dissimilar materials.
