Polymers

ENL have the capability to manufacture using the whole spectrum of standard, engineering and high performance polymers.

In particular, ENL are one of only a few companies to be approved to process materials such as PPS, PEEK, Torlon and Ultem.

Our capabilities cover the following spectrum: -

• Standard polymers
• Engineering polymers
• High performance polymers

Our material capabilities cover polymers such as polyethylene, polypropylene, acetal, acrylic, nylon (polyamides), polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polycarbonates.
Examples of this are (but not limited to):
