Production process of PVC foamed sheet
We will examine the method and steps of producing foamed sheets together
The first step in the production of foamed PVC sheets is the preparation of raw materials. And polyvinyl chloride is the main material in the production of foamed PVC sheets. In fact, polyvinyl chloride is a type of plastic that is extracted from oil and petrochemical sources and is available in the market in the form of small spheres.
In the second step, additives to the main ingredient must be prepared. The reason why additives are added to polyvinyl chloride is that the physical and chemical characteristics of polyvinyl chloride and the way its cellular structure is improved in the foam. In the production process, additives including fillers, curing agents, and modifiers are added to the original material.
production of polyvinyl chloride foam (pvc)
After the raw materials of polyvinyl chloride are prepared for the production of PVC foamed sheets, these materials are entered into the extrusion machine and come out as PVC foamed sheets. Polyvinyl chloride is entered into a process called extrusion and its output is in the form of sheets with a cellular structure.
After the polyvinyl chloride was produced under the extrusion process with a cellular structure. In order for polyvinyl chloride to have a suitable cell structure, it must be under controlled temperature and pressure during production. And when it reaches the right structure, it can be measured and cut in different sizes according to the need
Then, according to the request and needs of various industries and businesses, it should be packaged and distributed after cutting
Due to the complexity of producing PVC foamed sheets and the use of advanced and special equipment and technologies, as well as features such as lightness, sound and thermal insulation, and the ability to cut and turn, it is required by many industries and businesses, and for investment The long term is very suitable.
What is the reason for the difference in the price of foamed sheets of different companies? Why are some cheaper and some more expensive?
Stay with us to answer these questions to know why the prices of foamed sheets produced by different manufacturers are different?
The difference in the price of foamed PVC sheets is due to 4 reasons
1- The density of PVC foamed sheets: The first and most important reason is the density of PVC foamed sheets. As you know, the higher the density and the fuller the sheet, the better the quality of the foamed sheet. Some of the sheets are hollow and there are many holes inside them, and due to being hollow, they weigh less, which is why they have a cheaper price, which is also called the difference in the density of the foamed sheet.
2- The amount of production of companies: As you know, large companies have a large amount of production and can provide raw materials and suitable equipment for the manufacture and production of PVC foamed sheets at a better and lower price, and the cost of producing the product for this There are fewer producers, and as a result, the cost of the product is lower for them, which makes them able to offer their products at a lower price.
3- Expertise and high experience of producers: Manufacturers and production companies with a long history in the production of foamed PVC sheets, relying on their experience and using their expertise, can achieve special methods that improve the quality of foamed sheets. increase the cost and reduce the price and cost of production and the finished cost of the product
4- Market competitiveness: Considering that the companies producing PVC foam sheets each use tricks such as discounts and price reductions to increase sales and gain more market share and remain in the market. This could be one of the reasons.
