WE DEVELOPED THE FIRST FEP SLEEVE FOR PULP AND PAPER
High-Performance Fluoropolymer Heat Shrink Covers for Increased Efficiency in the Pulp and Paper Industry
Enhancing Productivity and Quality with Durable and Low-Friction Custom Fluoropolymer Covers
The pulp and paper industry is a challenging environment, with high temperatures, corrosive chemicals, and harsh processing conditions. To meet these demands, it’s crucial to have reliable and durable equipment. One of the best solutions to enhance the performance of your equipment is to use fluoropolymer heat shrink covers.
Fluoropolymer heat shrink covers are made of a special type of polymer that has excellent chemical resistance and high-temperature tolerance. These covers are designed to fit over the equipment, providing a barrier against corrosive chemicals, abrasion, and wear and tear. The covers also have non-stick properties that prevent material buildup, which can cause downtime and reduce production efficiency.
One of the biggest advantages of fluoropolymer heat shrink covers is their ability to withstand high temperatures. They can be used in high-heat applications, making them ideal for use in the pulp and paper industry, where high temperatures are a common issue. This high-temperature tolerance extends the life of the equipment and reduces downtime, allowing you to keep your production running smoothly and efficiently.
In addition to their durability, fluoropolymer heat shrink covers are also easy to install. The covers are heated, causing them to shrink and conform to the shape of the equipment. This process is quick and easy, and the covers can be removed and replaced as needed, providing an effective and convenient solution for maintaining your equipment.
Investing in fluoropolymer heat shrink covers is a cost-effective way to protect your equipment and enhance your production efficiency. By providing excellent chemical resistance, non-stick properties, and high-temperature tolerance, these covers help extend the life of your equipment, minimize downtime, and improve production efficiency. If you’re looking for a reliable solution for your pulp and paper processing needs, consider fluoropolymer heat shrink covers.
If you want to enhance the performance of your equipment and keep your production running smoothly, give us a call.

The Benefits of Pure Virgin Grade
Fluoropolymers over Recycled
Virgin grade fluoropolymers offer several advantages compared to recycled ones. The key benefits of using virgin grade fluoropolymer are:
- Consistent Quality: Virgin grade fluoropolymers are made from pure, uncorrupted resin, ensuring consistent quality and performance.
- High Purity: Virgin grade fluoropolymers have a higher level of chemical purity, reducing the risk of contamination and ensuring consistent physical properties.
- Improved Performance: Virgin grade fluoropolymers typically have better physical properties, such as higher melting points, better electrical insulation, and higher resistance to thermal and chemical degradation.
- Longer Lifespan: The consistent quality of virgin grade fluoropolymers leads to longer lifespan and reduced maintenance, resulting in cost savings over time.
Recycled fluoropolymers can provide cost savings, but they may not have the same consistent quality, purity, performance, and lifespan as virgin grade materials. Additionally, recycled materials can carry impurities from previous applications, which can negatively impact their performance in new applications.
