Within the Textile and Nonwovens industry, AFC's fabrics and belting are utilized as a process aid in various applications. The high temperature resistivity, long lasting durability, and smooth non-stick surface are ideal for multiple applications in this industry. Some of these applications include textile drying, textile thermal fusing, and the thermal bonding of nonwovens.
AFC works together with companies that are frustrated with inconsistent processes and the downtime caused by the need to untangle product caught in the machine.
