FPO® Sheet is considerably more rigid than ordinary unfilled sheet material, and has better workability. In addition, FPO® Sheet has superior thermal properties due to FPO®’s lower heat capacity, higher heat con­ductivity and higher softening temperature. Together, these advantages offer the possibility of lower material consumption and considerably higher output in, for ex­ample, thermoforming.  Thanks to its low shrinkage, FPO® Sheet can replace PS polystyrene in existing tools in thermoforming proc­esses. FPO® Sheet gives more uniform shaping and better punchability.

FPO® Sheet is also twice as good a barrier to light, oxy­gen and water vapour.  Standard capability is up to 1400 mm wide and 170-1200 μm thick. Special products can be up to 2300 mm wide.
