Sustavacu® Vacuum Formable Nylon Sheet is a recently developed 12% glass fibre filled Nylon sheet that allows economical production of high-quality formed parts by thermo-forming.

​

The parameters for processing were determined in numerous thermoforming tests by the Application Technology Department of ILLIG, a world leader in thermoforming equipment.

​

Sustavacu® has been trialled by BMW and Mercedes Benz in HVAC applications.
