Industrial Packaging

Manufacturers of packaging machinery specify AFC products for standard and replacement parts on many of their machines. AFC products are used to facilitate the flow of materials through various packaging cycles by performing the following functions. Non-stick covers for heat-sealing units, conveyors in packaging cycles, and conveyors in container manufacture.

  • Smooth, non-stick surface
  • Durability
  • Temperature resistivity (-400°F to +600°F or -240°F to +316°C)
  • Heat transfer
  • Dimensional stability (Belting)
  • Surface texture

Packaging applications:

  • Release tape for protection of heat-sealing wires and jaws in shrink-wrapping operations
  • Release fabric and tape for blister pack packaging
  • Release belts for sealing of the side and base of plastic wrapped packaging
  • Release belts for shrink-wrap ovens
  • Fabric for curtains for shrink-wrap ovens
  • Release tape for vacuum packing operations
  • Release tape for vertical form fill sealing
