PRODUCTS

FlexForm is a non-woven composite material made from a blend of natural fibers and polypropylene. It is an excellent substitute for many existing wood fiber, wood flour and fiberglass reinforced plastics. It is available in various formats for a variety of heating capabilities prior to molding:

FlexForm MT (Non-woven mat)

Flexible non-woven mat is used in a contact oven with optional forced hot air preheat, for 3D applications.

FlexForm LD (Low density board)

Preprocessed to allow use in forced hot air heating systems for 2D and 3D applications. Allows for variable geometry in forming. Is an ideal tack board.

FlexForm HD (High density hardboard)

Fully compressed sheet to be used in infra-red or convection ovens for 2D and 3D applications. 

FlexForm FR (ASTM E84 Class A rating) - Second Quarter 2008

Available in variable press densities and weights to allow for drop in replacement of current materials used in panel and wall systems. 

Standard sizes:

Weight: 450 to 2400 grams/m2
Widths: Up to 3.5m (11.25 feet) depending on product type
Packaging: Sheets or rolls

Composition Flexibility

When designing composite materials, more natural fiber generally provides higher tensile strengths at lower cost. Higher polymer content increases the plasticity required for deeper draws and more complex 3D parts. Mats and panels can be multi-layered for a variety of applications. Performance features such as increased fire resistance and greater dimensional stability can be engineered into custom formulations.
