Packaging & Availability

Packaging Type
Packing

It is supplied in 25 Kgs. dry, ready to mold, in sealed bags to prevent the uptake of moisture.

Storage & Handling

Pre-Drying

FPL grades can normally be taken for direct processing. However, in case the material is exposed to atmosphere, it is advisable to pre-dry the material at 80 C for 2 to 3 hours for good surface finish.
