TPU films specified in many markets, applications and environments
Tuftane® thermoplastic polyurethane films are specified in many markets, applications and environments: from artificial heart components, blood plasma bags and isolation tents in hospitals, to construction pipelining, aircraft furnishings, automotive parts and industrial valves. Tuftane® thermoplastic films come in a choice of over 30 grades, supplied in rolls up to 1.6 m wide, slit to width.
Tuftane® TPU film grades are blended using either polyester or polyether aromatic PU polymer technologies. Standard and bespoke grades with speciality additives options are available to order. The Permali technical team works closely with customers to ensure that cost effective thermoplastic material solutions are provided with the exact additives, technical specifications and properties needed to meet their processing, product performance and regulatory requirements. Our TPU film grades vary from very soft and flexible to hard and stiff and are blended to match end use applications.
All Tuftane® thermoplastic films are blown film extruded in-house, supplied to manufacturers on a roll, slit to width and rewound to order to optimise material utilisation and minimise scrap.
Tuftane® Thermoplastic Polyurethane films are easy for a manufacturer to work with using traditional techniques for combining, converting and finishing of plastic and rubber materials.
