Taconic's nonstick fabrics, tapes, belts and PCB materials are virtually everywhere.

The products you buy in a store may have been packaged using Taconic's PTFE belts and pressure sensitive tapes. In addition, your fast food meal or pre-cooked convenience food may have been processed with Taconic's food processing belts or PTFE coated bake liners.

Your cell phone, GPS system and other electronic gear may contain Taconic's PTFE laminates. Taconic's release tapes & fabrics may have been used in composite molding for the wind turbine blades in your community, for boat hulls in your local marina and for aerospace components in the airplane you travelled on to visit grandma. Similarly, Taconic's nonstick conveyor belts may have processed the carpet materials in your home or some of the apparel items in your closet.

Although you might not realize it, Taconic's PTFE materials are working behind-the-scenes, positively impacting your daily life.

IndustryApplication
AerospacePorous bleeder material used as a release cloth in vacuum molding Release tape used in vacuum molding Aircraft wire harness/cable wrap for electrical insulation/protection Release Fabric
ApparelConveyor belts used on fusing machines to bond woven and non-woven fabrics Sewing machine and cutting table covers for ease in fabric handling
AutomotiveBelts carrying extruded plastic, rubber or foam auto parts through curing ovens. Release material for lamination of scuff boards and aerodynamic panel skirts for trucks Used in lamination process of head liners
Carpet/FlooringConveyor belts to convey uncured synthetic rubber PVC backing and woven fiber overlay through a curing chamber where materials are bonded.
CompositesMold release tapes provide a super-smooth finished surface, eliminate the need for waxes and chemical cleaners, can be gel coated and reduce prep time, finish work and clean-up Bleeder cloth
Expansion JointsDesigned to provide stress relief, absorb thermal expansion and shock, adjust for minor misalignments in ductwork and isolate mechanical vibrations
Food Processing (Industrial) (Retail) (Quick Service Restaurant)Baking tray liners Belts for precooking steak, chicken, bacon, eggs and other food items such as pizza crust and flour tortillas Chute and table liners for stick
