Richard Alberts about TIVAR HPV

In addition to more traditional plastics that still offer a better solution than wood, glass or metal in many situations, new semi-finished products also regularly enter the market. Lakwijk keeps an eye on developments, is your technical advisor and brings these new materials to the market. Richard Alberts is a technical advisor and account manager at Lakwijk Kunststoffen BV and is happy to inform you about such a product development.

Richard: “TIVAR HPV is a “High Performance” polyethylene. This plastic offers even higher wear resistance than TIVAR 1000, with an almost zero “stick-slip” level. This material is increasingly being chosen by our customers for whom great control over movement, wear resistance and accuracy are important.” This material from producer (and partner of Lakwijk) Quadrant, creates opportunities for our customers to reduce costs and reduce rejection or downtime. Richard: “With TIVAR HPV, Quadrant offers us the opportunity to help more (potential) customers improve their processes.”
