Production process and application of PVC pre-coated film

PVC pre-coated films are used in a variety of industries thanks to their durability, aesthetics, and ease of application, for example in automotive and furniture applications. As noted in the article, BANFERT specializes in manufacturing these films. A review of the technologies used in the manufacture of PVC pre-coated films is presented in this article. 

Technology of Manufacturing PVC Pre-Coated Film

The material used in the manufacture of PVC pre-coated films is engineered in such a way as to meet high quality standards. The first step in the process is the development of a polymer base film, which can also be made of PVC. As one considers the base polymer strength, it is important to note that flexibility and surface finishes required are essential attributes for the final palm film. 

1. Precoat Preparation  

  Silicon based films provide a good insulating base, that is strip conductors and wires, and providing good electrical insulation. In such a case the silicon base film will enable ensuring smooth blow laminates.

2. Application of Coatings

There are several coating application techniques that can be employed for the PVC resin coating of the base film such as lamination or extrusion. The best part is that the resin can be modified for getting varieties of finishes so it can be matte, gloss or even embossed. However, this entire coating application process is closely supervised to achieve the desired thickness and quality.

3. Curing and Gantry

Apart from the extrusion process, the coating of the film is also done through the curing procedure whereby PVC resin is embedded into the coating using heat, Ultraviolet light, or both. The film is then cooled to solidify the coating for stronger materials.

4. Sheet and Roll Cutting

After cooling, the film is restructured into sheets or large rolls depending on the customer’s requirements. Quality of the final product is then checked for coatings that might be uneven or contain bubbles.

Uses of PVC Pre-Coated Film

We at BANFERT provide PVC pre-coated films that have a wide range of uses due to the aforementioned characteristics. Among these, we can list the most common ones:  

1. Automotive Industry  

   These films are popular in the automotive industry for a range of products with both interior and exterior coatings such as dashboard coats, seat covers, door panels, and many more. It has an eye catching finish, high levels of abrasion resistance and maximum durability.

2. Furniture and Home Decor  

   Moreover, the films are increasingly being applied in a variety of fashion and home decor accessories such as TV cabinets, tables, and chairs, as they are more durable. Due to these capabilities, a range of diverse textures can be achieved so the film can be easily integrated into home decor.

3. Construction and Building Materials  

   PVC films are additionally applied in construction and architecture for furniture, wall panels, and coverings for flooring or decorative surfaces. The films are highly resistant to moisture, UV rays, and a range of chemicals so these can be used indoors and outdoors.

4. Packaging  

   Finally, when applied in packaging pre-coated films can protect the board and ensure that it is visually appealing for higher grade products. The combination of protective and aesthetic qualities makes the pre-coated film the ideal solution for premium packaging.
