METAL PROTECTIVE FABRICS
Texene LC is an innovative global leader in manufacturing slit olefin film fabrics that meet required product specifications. Our engineers have developed metal protective fabrics that are designed with the following three key points in the fore-front:
- Provide protection meeting physical requirements
- Avoid handling damage
- 100% recyclable
Our research and development team has come up with a unique composition olefin slit film, made with quality resin and value added additives to achieve the unique properties as per the requirements . In addition, our manufacturing team uses modern weaving machines with up-to- date peripherals to reduce the stress and strain of slit film without damaging its intended properties during extrusion and is extrusion coated on a state of the art wide-coating machine. Texene woven fabric has consistent desirable properties across the warp (machine) & weft (fill) directions.
Metal Protective Fabrics:
Texene’s innovative engineers provide a number of choices in using VCI technology. Depending on the consumer’s extrusion coating requirements, our product is offered in polypropylene or polyethylene substrate with or without kraft paper backing and extrusion coating. We will manufacture the fabric as per your requirements for color, thickness, strength, print and any added properties with other options. Our metal protective fabrics provide dirt & dust protection, continuous protection from salt, humidity, galvanic corrosion and oxidation of metal surface which eliminates rust and corrosion during storage and transportation.
Properties:
Oil, grease, and water resistant barrier
Reinforced for tear and puncture resistance
Superior MVTR (moisture vapor transfer rate)
Superior forming characteristics – easily folded without cracking or barrier loss.
Bi-directional superior strength
Nitrite & heavy metal free formulation
