Materials Used for PPE Products
Along with various shapes, we supply different materials used for PPE products:
- Acrylic – This type of plastic, also known as Plexiglass, is a transparent thermoplastic that boasts several unique characteristics not found in other plastic materials. Key benefits: Weighs 50 percent less than glass, and it’s resistant to temperature fluctuations, chemicals, and high impact, making it ideal for COVID plastic barriers.
- Mylar – Officially called BoPET, the acronym for biaxially-oriented polyethylene terephthalate, plastics manufacturers make this polyester film from stretched PET (polyethylene terephthalate). Key benefits: Outstanding barrier against gasses, odors, moisture, and airborne contaminants, and due to its flexibility, it too is a great option for COVID protection screens.
- Polycarbonate – This is a type of thermoplastic polymer with carbonate groups as part of its chemical composition. Easy to work and mold, it’s an excellent choice for COVID plastic barriers. Key benefits: Easy to cut, shape, and install, lightweight, and it’s 250 times stronger than glass, making it ideal for protective barriers in factories, warehouses, and manufacturing plants.
- PVC – PVC, the acronym for Polyvinyl chloride, ranks as number three in the most commonly manufactured plastic in the entire world. It’s available in both rigid and flexible forms. Key benefits: Resists abrasions, it’s lightweight, has excellent toughness and mechanical strength, and it’s easy to cut, shape, weld, and join.
