Manufacturers of slit hoses need a film material that is both durable and long-lasting. They also need it supplied in a form that can assist them in efficiently manufacturing their products. As a trailblazer for innovative creations in the world of Engineered Films, Presco has developed a slitting capability that is unique to our industry. This new technology not only saves time and cost, but it allows our clients more options than they have ever had in the past.
To put it simply, “Vent Hose Film” is an essential component in the manufacturing of dryer hoses, sewer hoses, and air ducts. The film contains moving air and liquids, so it must be durable. That’s why Presco manufactures our vent hose film with a state-of-the-art extrusion process and quality control designed to reduce the risk for pinholes in films as thin as .004″. Our uniquely formulated vent hose film is designed to be flame retardant and to meet stringent anti-microbial specifications. Best of all, Presco vent hose film is 100% recyclable.
Presco recognizes that our customers need the ability to feed their equipment large diameter rolls of film to minimize change-over during the manufacturing process. To address this need, Presco has developed an internal slitting ability for those large-diameter film rolls by investing in the most state-of-the-art slitting machines on the market.
Now, Presco can take roll diameters as large as 23.5″ and slit them to widths as small as 1.25″ with a tolerance of +/- 1/32″. Individual roll packaging is available with 3″ cores. We also offer custom emboss patterns to help maximize manufacturing efficiencies.
Last year, Presco celebrated its 75th anniversary as a premier manufacturer of high-quality film products. For over 30 of those years, we have been formulating vent hose films for dryer hoses, sewer hoses, and air ducts with precision slitting capabilities that are unrivaled to the industry.
