The RACOP parts can be produced in a range of 14 colours of 1000 grade Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) polyethylene material. This extensive range of colour coding, unique to Zepf Technologies UK, enables easy identification of different sets of parts and it allows production staff to be confident that each changeover is fully complete, as the same colour will appear along the whole packaging line when it has been changed over for a specific container.
The performance characteristics and resistance to liquid absorption of UHMW polyethylene makes it the most suitable material for use in the food industry.
However, we always select the most appropriate materials for a particular application and on occasion will use: pvc, delrin, nylon, acetal, aluminium and others.
