Release properties

Release

At Taconic we like to say “nothing sticks on our watch” – and that’s all thanks to the superior release properties of our PTFE coated materials.

Taconic’s PTFE coated glass fabrics are widely used where chemical resistance, thermal & electrical insultation, food compliance, and heat resistance are needed. However, for many applications, release properties & low coefficients of friction are key.

These properties are important for efficient production in applications such as:

· Food Process Belting (for meats, eggs, pancakes and more)
· Heat Sealing & Flexible Packaging
· Baking sheets (baked goods, confectionary, meats)
· Roller wrapping (Preventing a build-up of polys, epoxies, and adhesives)
· PVC Window Welding
· Chute liners
· Wear strips
· Polybag Manufacturing

With over 60 years of manufacturing experience, Taconic is here to find the solution to your problem. If you have an application where your materials are sticking or distorting, reach out to us for help on our Contact Page.

What makes our products unique?

Quality. Served on time!

At Taconic, we provide solutions – that goes for our people as well as our products. Very few materials can provide all the combined benefits of PTFE coated glass fabric – heat resistance, thermal & electrical insultation, chemical resistance, food compliance, as well as release properties.Our products can be used in many different industries and applications in many different ways and for many different reasons. Exploring each key property in isolation is only part of our story. When these characteristics are combined, they will deliver unique and exceptional solutions for our customers.

Chemical resistance

Resistance to chemicals is a key characteristic of Taconic’s PTFE coated glass fabrics. Harsh substances including acids and bases will attack and deteriorate most tapes, fabrics,and belts.

Heat resistance

High temperatures can breakdown most fabrics, tapes, and belts. Taconic’s heat resistant materials allow for fewer changeovers, higher line speeds, longer life, and an overall lower cost of production.

Release properties

At Taconic we like to say “nothing sticks on our watch” – and that’s all thanks to the superior release properties of our PTFE coated materials.

Direct food contact

At Taconic, we respect the integrity of your food production processes. For that reason, we ensure that all our food grade PTFE coated glass fabrics and conveyor belts fully comply with relevant FDA & EU regulations.
