PVC Compounds
PVC is of low thermal stability and high melt viscosity. Therefore, it is combined with a number of additives to vary properties to suit different end-use applications. We manufacture our range of PVC compound materials or PVC compounds for Wires in accordance to the ISI standards, available in black and colored compositions. PVC Compounds offered by us provides maximum output and available in different specification and models. The material PVC is manufactured using high quality raw material. When it comes to what is PVC means it is thermo plastic polymer used instead of rubber in electric cables. We are leading PVC suppliers providing a comprehensive range of PVC Pipes and Fittings, known for its durability, high abrasion resistance, non toxic nature and high pressure-bearing capability used for various municipal and industrial applications.
Farcom has an installed capacity of 50,000 MT per annum. Its state of art infrastructure includes High Speed mixers, Kneeder and Twin Screw Extruder. The compounds are even designed and manufactured according to the requirements of the end product manufacturer.
