Introduction to PP Edgebanding
PP edgebanding is produced from polypropylene. Polypropylene is one the many types of thermoplastic polymers that exist in the world.
PP edgebanding is the most ecological, most flexible, and most heat resistant edgebanding among our plastic edgebanding range.
Simply, we can list the characteristics of PP as below:
It is the lightest weight polymer amongst thermoplastics
It is the most ecological
It is the most flexible
It has the best properties against shrinkage and heat.
PP edgebanding is a good choice for small radius applications and places where furniture is exposed to excess temperature and heat.
We can produce all sorts of edgebanding from polypropylene (plain colors, high gloss colors, and woodgrain colors).
TECE PP edgebanding is produced in master rolls of 300mm. Therefore, it can be slit to any size from 9mm up to 300mm.
The thickness can change from 0,4mm and 3mm.
We mainly consider PP edgebanding as an alternative to ABS as they can easily be recycled / burned without creating hazardous gas. We would not recommend PP edgebanding as alternative to PVC as processing PVC is less complicated than PP.

Inspiration, innovation and the latest in the world of wood and furniture await you.

Elegant, ecological and resistant: the wood treated with the millenary technique called Yakisugi challenges the weather and the passage of time. In the world of design and construction, a Japanese ancestral technique is gaining prominence. This is the Yakisugi (also known as Shou Sugi Ban), a method that consists in burning the surface of the wood to make it more resistant and attractive. Although it may seem contradictory, exposing wood to fire gives natural protection against moisture, insects and deterioration over time.
