About

A continuous manufacturing process that involves conveying mixed plastic compound through a heated barrel by a specially disengaged spiral shaped screw. The original powder blend is converted into a molten plastic mass that exits through a die which flattens the mass into a sheet of designated width and thickness. The sheet then passes through heated embossing rolls which impart a predetermined surface finish prior to trimming to the final sheet dimension. A variety of surface finishes are available.

BENEFITS OF EXTRUSION
Unlimited colors at low minimums. Sheet or rolls in opaque and capped with 10 standard textures.

Raw materials in powder form are fused into a homogeneous molten mass through heat and friction shear in a mixing chamber. This molten plastic is fed into a series of heated revolving rollers that squeeze the material to a desired thickness. After leaving the rollers the material passes through a series of surface conditioning and cooling rolls from which it is wound into custom rolls or cut into specified sheet dimensions.

BENEFITS OF CALENDERING
Produces thin gauge sheet and translucent films so you can order clear, opaque and special effect sheet, such as metallics, in 7 unique textures.

A process of producing various thicknesses of plastic sheet by using heat and pressure, over a designated period of time, to fuse several thin sheets of plastic together to form one solid sheet of material. Colors can be combined to produce a multicolor edge effect and reinforcing medium, such as wire, may be embedded between layers to tailor material for a specific application.

BENEFITS OF PRESS LAMINATION
Unlimited custom textures in a range of thin to thick single or multi-layer composites.
