FM-PVC (CRP-1)
High-Purity Plastics for Ultrapure Chemical Delivery
SIMONA® CRP-1 has been leading the US market in FM 4910 PVC materials for the past 15 years. Alternative PVC materials try to compete against CRP-1 performance and market penetration, but CRP-1 is the brand that OEM’s recognize and trust.
Throughout much of 2018, the SAI team educated multiple fabricators in the US, EU, and Asia markets, by training on key material benefits such as surface dyne and ductility, while performing onsite weld seminars to show why CRP-1 welds easier and faster than competitive materials.
CRP-1's low surface dyne offers high gloss finish and increased resistance to particle adhesion and chemical staining - critical factors in cleanroom environments.
Advantages of SIMONA CRP-1
SIMONA AMERICA Industries also offers a very unique weld rod product called Versarod. SIMONA® Versarod allows CRP-1 to weld to Kynar® PVDF in non-structural applications. This is an excellent alternative to fastening exhaust or draining pipes, or holding bases in place, all without alternative materials.
Better resistance to particle adhesion and easier to clean
Same formula for sheet and welding rod (identical composition)
More reliable resin supply source and readily available
Weld rod and sheet are both ductile, reducing risk of weld fracture
Available globally (EU, Asia, US) in white and ivory colors
15+ years of proven market success and OEM recognition
The ONLY Choice in FM-PVC Rated Cleanroom Materials!
