Plastics and packaging industries are a hugely diverse set of applications that rely on Saint-Gobain's high performance films to solve unique opportunities. Our films are used as consumables, process aids and as components in finished goods. Our films provide proven performance through proper polymer selection and value added coatings and laminations. Our thin film solutions could be the answer for your next project.
Welding films are used to seam two larger pieces of high performance film or fabric together to create a permanent weather proof joint. Welding films can effectively combine PTFE, PFA, FEP and ETFE based products together to surpass the width and length limitations of standard film and fabric production methods. These products are used in architecturally beautiful, yet functional, coverings recognized in iconic landmarks around the globe. They are also used in world class manufacturing plants to create process belting for high speed and high volume production. Saint-Gobain offers a complete selection of high performance welding films to cover the needs of Architectural, Military and Industrial applications.
Products used in welding applications:
Inherently hydrophobic and chemically resistant, Zitex G microporous membrane prevents passage of liquid solutions (below initiation pressure) while allowing free passage of gases. These characteristics make Zitex an ideal venting material for use in containers where the danger of gas pressure build-up is present. Zitex can be laminated to plastic closures or other substrates for such applications as cap liners to allow vapors to safely vent from the container while preventing pressure build-up and loss of liquid.
Products used in hydrophobic venting:
High performance bags are a convenient way to manufacture and shape a container or container liner for the storage, transport and use of a chemical or fluid.
