On May 13-17, Union opens the doors of its facility in San Vittore Olona, near Milan, to show its new extrusion line for the manufacturing expanded polypropylene (EPP) hollow sheets. The plant is equipped with a 1000 kg/hour extruder, modern calibration systems, screen changers and a 3000 mm wide flat head.
The line is the result of the R&D activities carried out by the manufacturer, aimed at developing highly technological extrusion systems for processing advanced materials, ensuring high output rates and top product quality at a low cost. EPP hollow sheets stand out for their cost efficiency, robustness, lightweight and imperviousness to water and moisture, thus representing an efficient solution for a wide range of applications such as industrial packaging, advertising boards and road signs.
