Argotec revamps to serve textile laminators

To better serve the textile lamination and performance apparel industries, Argotec Inc., Greenfield, Mass., will concentrate on “better matching our film extrusion capabilities, technical expertise and resources with the applications of our customers—strength to strength,” says Bruce Wilby, president and CEO of Argotec. The company’s thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film and sheet works well with textile lamination for making performance clothing and shoes. OmniFlex™ waterproof and breathable films and ArgoFlex™ barrier films contain no plasticizers that cause allergic reactions, provide high breathability, durability, excellent stretch and recovery, softness, and good hand. The films can include antimicrobial technologies for anti-odor properties.
