At Taconic, we provide solutions – that goes for our people as well as our products. Very few materials can provide all the combined benefits of PTFE coated glass fabric – heat resistance, thermal & electrical insultation, chemical resistance, food compliance, as well as release properties.
Our products can be used in many different industries and applications in many different ways and for many different reasons. Exploring each key property in isolation is only part of our story. When these characteristics are combined, they will deliver unique and exceptional solutions for our customers.
