It is no secret that industrial plants, like yours, are facing tight profit margins post-pandemic. From employee shortages and wage fights to shipping and logistical difficulties, you cannot afford for any part of your plant to shut down operations due to part malfunction. A fast turnaround time on coating application and low minimum lots become essential components for successful operations in the post-pandemic world.
When machine owners/operators are looking for fluoropolymers to solve their problems, most think of the Teflon™ brand first, but there are several considerations that must be visited first, before selecting the best coating
Teflon™ PTFE, or polytetrafluoroethylene coating, is used in a wide variety of applications. It is used on rollers of various sizes, providing solutions for engineering applications, particularly those applications that require low-friction, non-stick, chemical-resistance or wear resistance. One of the most common uses of PTFE in the printing and paper industry, is in photocopiers, namely fuser, feed, pressure, and guide rollers.
Xylan® Coatings: Xylan is a brand-name fluoropolymer coating line created by the Whitford Worldwide Company, which specialized in the manufacture of low-friction, wear-resistance coatings for industrial applications and non-stick coatings for consumer products. The company was acquired by PPG Industries in 2019.

Without a doubt, most of these coating application companies offer a wide variety of high-quality fluoropolymers and follow a careful process to minimize mistakes. Amidst pandemic difficulties, profit margins are tighter than ever, and many industrial businesses simply cannot afford to shut down production lines to get parts and equipment coated.
