PTFE stands for Polytetrafluoroethylene. It’s made out of synthetic polymer resin, which consists of carbon and fluorine. Alternate names for PTFE include: Polyflon, Hostaflon, and Fluon.
Canada Plastics & Belting Inc. specializes in distributing high-quality premium-grade PTFE/Teflon-coated glass fabrics, tapes, and conveyor belts that are ideal for industrial and commercial use. We also provide Teflon sealer belts and tapes for the plastic bag manufacturing industry.
