High performance without secondary
operations – When using Stat-Tech material,
painting and vacuum metallization are not
necessary in order to achieve the performance you
need from your ADAS systems, therefore cutting
down on the processing times and costs associated
with using aluminum.

With the increasing demands
for flexible packaging, most manufacturers of film
and sheet in flexible packaging are required to
optimize processing, enhance goods performance
and achieve cost savings to increase profitability
and gain market share.
