Calendering
Calendering
A calender is a series of hard pressure rollers used to apply coatings, or to finish, smooth, or form a sheet of plastics or plastic films. Calender rolls can be heated or cooled as needed, can be used for polishing, or making uniform, coatings applied to substrates. Typical processing includes polymers such as vinyl and ABS polymer sheets, and to a lesser extent HDPE, polypropylene, and polystyrene.
Sustainability. The Key To Future Value.
We have placed sustainability, environment, social and governance (ESG) issues at the very center of our focus. Not simply to comply with regulations and standards, but to drive true change that transforms tomorrow. This, we believe, is how real value is created.
