Allplastics stock, cut and machine UHMWPE Rod & Sheet for a wide range of industries & applications.
The material is especially suitable for food manufacturing and preparation facilities. If exhibits excellent wear resistance characteristics due to its low co-efficient of friction (second only to PTFE). It has high impact strength, is molecularly stable and suitable for low temperatures.
Polyethylene is a food grade material with FDA approval, it also has non stick properties. This makes it the preferred option for chopping boards pasta rollers, rolling pins, wall cladding for meat, fish and poultry plants.
In addition Allplastics Engineering offers Nylon, Acetal, PEEK, Polypropylene for more demanding conditions. Clear Polycarbonate machine guards are fabricated for safety and noise reduction in factories.
