Details
The roofing membrane uses the EM400+UV MB and EM402-L, whereas the house wrap uses PL381 and PM381.
Benefits
- Arnitel® offers intrinsic breathability at the same level of TPU
- Arnitel® allows for the possibility to run at lower film thickness and at higher extrusion speed versus TPU, which allows for a lower cost system
- Arnitel® has a commercial track record for over 20 years
- Soap Dispensers Application Data
Details
Arnitel® is used in generic soap dispensers without the need for a metal spring.Benefits
- Arnitel® offers good elasticity and low hysteresis, resulting in good spring characteristics
- No metal spring required in dispenser with Arnitel®
- Arnitel® has good colorability with a stable white base color
