CESA™ Block additives
modify the surface characteristics and improve
the coefficient of the friction of the sheet or film,
preventing self-adhesion.

Laser welding is a good
alternative to chemical adhesives or mechanical
assembly as it provides high-quality seams with
minimal mechanical stress, no surface damage, and
minimal flash and particle development.
