- Very low moisture absorption <0.1%
- Food contact approved.
Applications
- Chemical tanks
- Cutting boards
- Pumps
- Valves
- Gaskets.
Forms
- Sheet
- Rod
- Angle
- Square tube
- Hollow rod
- Pressure pipe
- Channel
- Weld rod
PP – FR
Product full identity: Polypropylene – Fire Retardant
PP-FR has most of the attributes of standard PP, with the added advantage of being a fire retardant grade.
Properties
- Improved fire resistance
- Wide temperature range (+80 to -0°C)
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Lightweight and weldable
- Very low moisture absorption <0.1%.
Applications
- Heating ventilation
- Air conditioning systems.
Forms
- Sheet
- Weld rod
PPC – PB
Product full identity:
Polypropylene Copolymer – Polyester Backed
PPC-PB is a polyester backed PP sheet. By applying fibreglass to the fabric backing it is possible to acheive strength and rigidity that is comparable with metal.
Properties
- Allows fibreglass reinforcement to be applied
- Wide temperature range (+80 to -20°C)
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Very low moisture absorption <0.1%
- Food contact approved.
Applications
- Large tanks that require fibreglass reinforcement.
Forms
- Sheet
PP / PE – R 
Product full identity:
Polypropylene / Polyethylene – Regenerated
PP/PE-R is a regenerated material consisting of a mix of PP and PE. This product offers similar properties to virgin grades but without any warranty. This material is not recommended for welding.
PP-R is similar to the above but with the added advantage of being weldable, for non-critical applications.
Properties
- Low cost
- Wide temperature range (+80 to -20°C)
- High chemical resistance
- Lightweight
- Good UV resistance.
Applications
- Signage, linings and impact strips.
Forms
- Sheet
