Plastatech® produces vinyl films and sheeting using a state-of-the-art calender. This computerized calender controls all aspects of the manufacturing process to produce consistent, high-quality films.
The calender can produce flexible vinyl from 6 to 30 mils (0.006 to 0.030 inches) in thickness, with a maximum width of 76.25 inches. Plastatech is capable of providing rolls up to 1,500 pounds.
Films are available with matte finish or shallow suedene embossing. Plastatech calendered films are not only featured in all Plastatech geomembranes but can be used in a variety of industries such as pool liners and vinyl outdoor decking. Plastatech goes beyond the ordinary in manufacturing pool liners and vinyl outdoor decking by providing custom prints and colors specific to your industry needs while also allowing for custom roll length options.
In December of 2014, Plastatech unveiled a new PVC extruder in its Saginaw, Michigan manufacturing facility. This new equipment produces PVC films and reinforced membranes up to 10-feet-wide - doubling the company's previous roll width capability. This investment reinforced Plastatech's mission to manufacture industry-leading products, inspired by founder John R. Burt's passion for producing the highest quality possible.
