Our latest 3-layer films: Sustainable innovation to reduce PFAS

In our continuous pursuit of environmentally friendly and innovative solutions, we are pleased to introduce our newly developed 3-layer films. This groundbreaking technology not only offers outstanding performance properties, but also makes a significant contribution to reducing the PFAS problem.

Revolutionary technology to minimize PFAS

Our new 3-layer films rely on an innovative combination of FEP (fluoroethylene propylene) and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), which are used in significantly thinner layers. This approach enables a drastic reduction in the PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) used, without compromising the performance and durability of the films.

Highest efficiency through optimized layer structure

Traditionally, applications of FEP and PTFE have required thicker layers to achieve the required chemical and thermal resistance. This has led to high use of these problematic substances in the past. Our 3-layer technology maximizes the efficiency of these materials and significantly reduces the necessary layer thicknesses.

The outer layers of our films take full advantage of FEP and PTFE, while the inner layer is made of a more environmentally friendly and less critical material. This structure allows a reduction in the amount of PFAS while improving the mechanical and functional properties of the films.

Outstanding safety standards through high CTI values

An outstanding feature of our 3-layer films is their high Comparative Tracking Index (CTI). The CTI value is an indicator of the resistance of an insulating material to tracking currents that can cause electrical short circuits. Our films achieve a CTI value in the highest classification, which underlines their exceptional resistance to tracking currents and makes them particularly suitable for applications where electrical safety and reliability are crucial.

Diverse applications for our 3-layer films

Thanks to their versatile properties, our 3-layer films can be used in numerous industrial sectors:

  • Electronics and electrical industry: Ideal for insulating electrical components and circuit boards due to high CTI values ​​and excellent insulating properties.
  • Medical Technology: Chemical resistance and biocompatibility of FEP and PTFE make them perfect for medical devices and implants.
  • Aerospace: Lightweight and robust properties meet the high demands of the aerospace industry.
  • Automotive industry: Our films are ideal for cable insulation, sensors and other electronic components that must withstand high temperatures and chemical influences.
  • Construction industry: Weather resistance and durability make our films perfect for sealing and protective layers.
  • Chemical industry: Excellent chemical resistance makes our films ideal for use in aggressive chemical environments.

A sustainable solution for the future

With the development of our 3-layer films, we are setting new standards in the efficiency and sustainability of film products. These advances actively contribute to minimizing environmental impact and are a significant step towards a more environmentally friendly future. Our technology offers a sustainable solution to global challenges and reflects our commitment to developing innovative and environmentally conscious products.
