FATRA A.S. - Plastic processing company

Foils and boards from PE, PET, and EVAC – smooth/embossed foils and boards from LD-PE, HD-PE – they are used in the building industry (undercutting of masonry, building insulation), or for other applications (vehicle mud-flaps, protective / separation layers in packaging, etc.). PET boards are designed for floor protection against scratching; anti-skid foil from EVAC is used as a protection against scratching and contamination in shelves and cabinets

Regranulate One of the reasons for using secondary raw materials (plastic waste) is their economic advantage caused by reduced material exigency and generally lower prices of inputs – recycled products/re-granulates. Using the higher amount of recycled product in products as an alternative to primary resources usually leads to their lower final price, which contributes to better competitiveness of products on the market. We produce re-granulates for injection moulding, blow moulding, and extrusion on modern re-granulating lines. Based on customers’ requirements, we can produce re-granulates with required melt flow index, of various colours, including re-granulates with filling compound content. In the production, we process internal and external waste. Product advantages continuous quality of inputs – secondary raw materials directly from the production stable production process with continuous control optional re-granulate colouring, or adding additives directly in the...

BO PET foil TENOLAN® and laminates FOLAM® – biaxial PET foils and multilayer laminated foils are designed to further processing, in particular in the production of flexible (and other) packages, for decoration purposes , electro-insulation, and various technical applications.

Technical consulting for application companies The INSULATION AND FLOORING STUDIO is oriented on professional technical support in the area of membrane damp-proofing of substructures, flat and sloped roofs, balconies, terraces, water-proofing of pools and small ponds, and also in technical support in the area of application floorings made by Fatra, a.s. Technical aid is provided not only to professional public, i.e. application and building companies, project designers and architects, but also to end users, investors, and their technical representatives. Specifications The centre of the INSULATION AND FLOORING STUDIO’S operation is formed by: Preparation, administration and updating of “Structural and technological regulations” of damp-proofing systems and flooring, creation of type details. Providing professional training to implementation companies. Providing chief-assembly for significant, complex, and atypical projects or as a help for start-up companies. Material laying...

Extruded sections – plastic profiles, handles, and hoses manufactured by extrusion from various materials (PVC, PE, PP, ABS, and TPE) with different physical characteristics, in different shapes and colours, with different finalization (cutting, coating, printing, embossing, marking).

Warning foils Warning (cautionary) foils made from PE (polyethylene) using extrusion technology. They are produced in various colour designs, with single- or double-sided pattern, with micro-perforation or without perforation. They serve as an indication and warning of the existence of cable routes and other conducts embedded in ground excavations, etc. These foils do not provide mechanical protection of such networks. Processed materials LDPE LDPE is a polyethylene with lower density. It is the most frequently used material in the production of foils, in particular for packaging. All simple types of disposable bags, garbage bags, and shopping bags are made just from LDPE. The reason is particularly its low price and easy processing ability. Foils are manufactured by extrusion, either as 2D foils or hoses (tubular extrusion). Foils can be made as very thin (bags for baked goods) or thick-walled (large bags). Package thickness may be adapted to application requirements from 30...

PVC granulate is a semi-product designed for further industrial processing (extrusion / co-extrusion, injection, moulding, coating). It is made from mixtures of plasticized / non-plasticized polyvinylchloride and respective admixtures according to final use requirements.

BOPET films Biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate (BOPET) films Fatra Tenolan® are extruded films with subsequent biaxial orientation. Films are designed for further processing in the packaging technology, electro-technical industry, for decoration purposes, as separation foils, etc. They are supplied in rolls or cut to size. Films are designed for direct contact with food and meals and they must comply with hygienic regulations in force. Processed materials PET Al PET (polyethylene-terephthalate) is a hard and clear polymer material with extremely good mechanical features. It shows excellent tear resistance; it can resist to high pressure volumes without braking, which is used in the production of packages for beverages – PET bottles. PET material is suitable also for the production of extruded foils. Subsequent biaxial stretching of the foil (in both directions) improves significantly the strength in both directions. It forms the required packaging material known for...

Fatra, a.s. – the traditional plastic processing company in the Czech Republic – expanded its production facilities in 2015 by processing internal and external plastic waste on a new re-granulating line. We offer polyolefin re-granulates produced on modern re-granulating lines, plastic waste processing from PP, PE, PP/PE, EVAC materials, and plastic waste buyout.

Antislip foils from EVAC Anti-slip EVAC mats – one-sided designed, adhesive foils to protect the furniture and shelves against scratching and soiling – with wide application not only in households, but also in offices and shops. Foils are manufactured by extrusion from copolymer ethylene-vinyl-acetate (EVAC). Processed materials EVAC EVAC (copolymer of ethylene with vinyl acetate) is a material distinguished by strength and transparency, it is soft and flexible similar to rubber. It is manufactured with the vinyl acetate content from 2 to 40 %. With increasing share of vinyl acetate, its transparency, adhesiveness, softness, and resistance against cracks also increases. Natural non-slip characteristic is an interesting feature of this material, which is beneficial in applications such as non-slip pads for floors, cabinets, shelves, and drawers. EVAC is resistant against mechanical stress and UV radiation. It is used in the production of various sports equipment – ski boots,...
