Teflon Coatings In The Molding Industry - photo example of a plastic mold

MOLDING

The molding industry is vast and widespread throughout North America with billions of dollars in annual revenue. While many categories define this segment, 16,000 companies are involved in just the manufacturing of plastic products alone.

Teflon™ coatings can cut manufacturing costs by eliminating release agents and reducing product defects. Teflon™ coatings provide a more permanent, nonstick, repeatable high-release solution for processes across every molding industry segment.

Common Teflon™ Coatings

FEP
The dominant line in molding due to its superior release properties

FEP Teflon™ S
These one-coat systems are excellent for the molding industry

PFA
Choose this if end use is a higher temperature range (above 400º F)
