THE CHALLENGE
PVC sheet and profile extrusion processors were looking
for ways to hit lower density targets while maintaining
a high-quality cell structure.
The result was lower production
density with fewer voids in the extruded sheet or
profile, leading to higher quality finished goods and
a reduction in scrap rates.

Why is PET
so Popular?
Sheet & Film—Sheets and films made
of PET are another major use case.
PET
sheets can be used to make a variety of
plastic products and film is often used
for tape backing, plastic wrap, medical
packaging, and protective coating on
windows.
