The Elastollan FC grades, which will be available from January 2016, comply both with EU regulations governing food-contact applications and the standards of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They can be used in a wide range of injection-moulding and extrusion applications, from conveyor belts, films and fabrics through to hoses.
