The producers of this unique range have a high charge for small amounts. You can buy whatever amount you want but the prices are quite high until you buy more than 10 sheets of each colour. There is also a picking charge if you want another colour. We can have these cut to size for you in either squares or rectangles at a reasonable cost or shapes that may have to be punched out with a formed knife.

Cutting, printing & shaping.

Polypropylene

We can cut these by guillotine or by a shaped knife into almost any shape you need.

Printing: The thin Polypropylene sheets can be are treated on both sides to give improved printing adhesion. This treatment remains effective from the date of production for 6 months. Our range is not guarantee suitable for printing unless you obtain a certified corona production date label. Some litho inks can be used with the corona treatment in effect. Some Litho and Screen printing inks are acceptable but Litho inks with a high mineral oil base should be avoided. Test them first. Vegetable / Soya based inks are usually suitable. Film lamination sealing is recommended if they are in contact with any Litho printed surface. They can be Hot Foil Blocked. Brass or steel block is preferred.

The thin Polypropylene sheets can be creased at room temperature up 1400 microns. They can also be punched, perforated, welded and sewn.

PVC - please ask if there is any technical data you require.

Thin Plastic Sheets - PVC & POLYPROPYLENE Only

You can also cllick POLYSTYRENE as it has a good colour range but is harder and does not bend as much or fold like Polypropylene.
