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.

Missions | New illegal felling in the Piñalito Provincial Park in San Pedro reveals the silent expansion of deforestation in protected areas
The advance of deforestation on protected areas was once again evident this week in the Piñalito Sur Provincial Park, in San Pedro, where the Ministry of Ecology and Renewable Natural Resources confirmed a new case of selective illegal logging. The event occurs in a context of growing concern about the fragility of the environmental control system in rural and border areas, where the scarcity of resources, personnel and logistics limits the capacity of surveillance against criminal organizations organized to steal native woods and market them on the black market in connivance with sawmill owners.
Experts cant believe it, but this tree is the oldest in the world and continues to bear fruit: it is 4,000 years old.
Nature keeps secrets that defy the passage of time, and one of the most surprising examples is a tree that, approximately 4,000 years old, continues to bear fruit today. This specimen has become a symbol of resistance and longevity, capable of surviving climate changes, landscape transformations and human activity itself.
Free seminar on the implementation of the European EUDR regulation on deforestation-free wood products
The Argentine Forestry Association (AFoA) organizes the seminar «EUDR in Forest Products: Current status of implementation. Regulatory requirements and private experiences", which will take place on Wednesday, November 26, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., via Zoom, with live streaming on YouTube. The European Regulation on Deforestation-Free Products (EUDR) will enter into force on December 31, 2025 and will impose new requirements for forest products entering the European Union market.
