AIMING TO CREATE A FUTURE !

Since the foundation, we have been devoting particular attention to fluoroplastics, which is a polymeric material with unique characteristics, and striving for research and development thereof.As a result, we have successfully combined fluoroplastics with other materials and commercialized highly value-added products made from fluoroplastics.Meanwhile, fluoroplastics has been increasing its possibilities and is expected to be used for new applications in many industries, including electricity, communication, machinery, foodstuffs, construction, and medical care.Further, based on the technical assets we have accumulated on fluoroplastics, we have entered new fields using high-performance plastics including silicone and super engineering plastics.In keeping with our slogan," Develop new products and open new fields," we will commit ourselves to the development of products in close cooperation with customers and strive to satisfy industrial needs, which are becoming increasingly diversified and sophisticated.

CHUKOH FLO® FABRICA composite material produced by impregnating and sintering fluoroplastic on industrial cloth, including glass cloth and aramid cloth, with unique technology. We further fabricate this composite material to deliver the resultant products to various industries including chemical, machine, electric, communication and construction.

Main usesRelease material / Insulating material / Adiabatic material/ Conveyor belt / Heat seal / Sliding material, etc.

CGH-500 SeriesCopper-clad laminate, laminated with a substrate produced by impregnating fluoroplastic and a special inorganic substance into glass cloth. Because of dielectric constant equal to general substrates but lower dissipation factor, substrates with lower loss can be obtained with the same design.

CGK-500 SeriesCopper-clad laminate, laminated with a substrate produced by impregnating fluoroplastic and a special inorganic substance into glass cloth. The high dielectric constant achieves compact, lightweight, and low-loss high-performance substrates.

■UL Standard Approval（UL File No. E78936）CHUKOH FLO® Copper-clad laminates, CGP-500A and CGS-500A are UL-approved products.
