Inorganic antimicrobials incorporate substances containing silver in ionic form, bound to inorganic compounds that regulate the diffusion of ions within the polymer mass.

Compared to current solvent- based coating technology, co-extrusion film using Versaflex CF has significantly reduced volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and helps reduce energy consumption by eliminating secondary coating and drying operations.

Silicon dioxide is a natural compound of silicon and oxygen found mostly in sand.

We now have a new suite of polymer compounds and formulation expertise to provide adhesives for removable protective films.

Whether it’s traditional recurve, compound, or crossbow limbs, our engineering team will work with you to develop a limb that meets your specific requirements.

Compared to traditional elastomeric compounds, it can be processed using standard single-screw extrusion equipment, eliminating the need for a continuous vulcanization (CV) line.

Compared to current solvent-based coating technology, co-extrusion film has significantly reduced volatile organic compound emissions (VOCs) and helps reduce energy consumption and emissions by eliminating secondary coating and drying operations.
