          \ud83c\udfed<\/u><\/strong> EN \u2013 PVC Film Production & Calendering at CIFRA<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          CIFRA specializes in high-quality recycled PVC film, vital for water management, automotive, packaging, and stationery sectors. Starting with PVC waste\u2014windows, cards, scraps, and film rolls\u2014materials are ground and micronized into fine granules (100\u2013500 \u00b5m). These are blended and extruded into molten PVC, then calendered into continuous film by passing through heated rollers. This calendering step ensures uniform thickness and surface quality. The film is finally wound into rolls or cut to size, with options for surface textures and laminations. CIFRA\u2019s recycled PVC film reduces CO\u2082 emissions by ~30,000 tonnes, supporting sustainable industries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
