Richard Alberts on TIVAR HPV
In addition to traditional plastics - which still often outperform wood, glass or metal - new semi-finished materials regularly enter the market. Lakwijk monitors these developments closely, advises customers technically, and introduces new materials where they add value.
Richard Alberts, technical advisor and account manager at Lakwijk Kunststoffen BV, explains: “TIVAR HPV is a high-performance polyethylene with even higher wear resistance than TIVAR 1000 and an almost zero stick-slip effect. More and more customers choose this material when they require controlled movement, wear resistance and accuracy.”
This material from our partner Quadrant enables customers to reduce costs and minimise downtime or rejects. Richard: “TIVAR HPV allows us to support even more customers in improving their processes.”
