THE BEST FOR FLAT AND COLD BENDING APPLICATIONS.
LUPET®A are premium quality amorphous polyethylene terephthalate (A-PET) sheets. They are ideally suited to flat and cold bending applications. LUPET® A shows good printability with UV curing inks and is flame retardant rated ‘difficult-to-ignite’ (Fire behavior according to EN 13501-1: B-s1, d0) as well as suitable for food applications. Moreover, it is extremely impact resistant also at temperatures down to -20°C and shows good outdoor durability in the variant with UV protection
LUPET®A sheets offer a unique combination of excellent properties and are well suited for e.g. flexible poster covers printed, translucent signs, small to medium sized displays, Slatwall magazine racks as well as for cold food storage elements

THE PERFECT MATERIAL FOR VACUUM FORMING AND THERMOFORMING.
·LUPET®G-SK (100% Virgin SK-2012 PETG RESIN)
·LUPET®G-CN (100% Virgin China PETG RESIN)
LUPET®G is the proven brand on the market for premium quality modified polyethylene terephthalate (PET-G). LUPET®G is the best choice for thermoforming and hot line bending applications. LUPET®G sheets are flame retardant rated “difficult-to-ignite” (fire behavior according to EN 13501-1: B-s1, d0), approved for use in the food industry and show very high impact-resistance. They are also excellent to print with UV curing inks and fast, convenient to convert.
LUPET®G sheets feature enhanced thermoforming capabilities as they do not crystalize. Vacuum forming requires no pre-drying and is therefore significantly quicker and more cost-effective.
LUPET®G sheets are suitable e.g. for all kinds of glazing (bus shelters, posters, machines), for medical appliance packaging displays and signs for interior and exterior use as well as for three-dimensional POS/POP displays.

WE USE TWO DIFFERENT PETG RESIN TO PRODUCE LUPET®G
LUPET®G-SK: means PETG SHEET which is made of 100% virgin PETG resin from South Korea
LUPET®G-CN: means PETG SHEET which is made of 100% virgin PETG resin from China
LUPET®GAG is laminated sheet made of A-PET (Amorphous Polyester) inner layer and PETG
(Amorphous Co-polyester) surface layer on both sides. It is suited for POP displays, etc.
Features
Adhesion
Comparing with regular LUPET®A sheet, LUPET®GAG has stronger adhesion strength due to the PETG surface layers.
Processability
Easy punching and bending by leading line. Less burring compared with LUPET®A materials.
Printing
Printing property is same as LUPET®G, better than LUPET®A.
Thermal forming
Vacuum forming and bending with heat process can be applied.
Applications
Interior Decoration for Stores

LUPET® SURFACE GUARD
◆ LUPET®A SURFACE GUARD (A-PET)
◆ LUPET®GAG SURFACE GUARD(PET-GAG)
◆ LUPET®G SURFACE GUARD(PET-G)
Extruded Sheet (APET , PET-GAG, PETG) With Hard Surfaces
LUPET® Surface Guard extruded PET-GAG panel is a specialty developed PET grade, which is highly abrasion/mar resistant (pencil hardness 2H), exceptional chemical resistance, excellent clarity & optical properties, exceptional mechanical properties & rigidity, simple to fabricate, whilst meeting with the difficult challenges of public glazing applications.
CHARACTERISTICS
⚫ The surface is hard, durable and abrasion-resistant
⚫ Completely clear APET / PET-GAG / PETG
⚫ Perfect material for surface protections, glazing, guard screens, displays and more
⚫ Easily maintained with soap and warm water – no harsh chemicals needed
⚫ Supplied with protective film on both sides
⚫ One or two sides coated. (S1 & S2)
LUPET® Surface Guard displays fantastic resistance to abrasions and scratches when compared with standard clear APET or PETG. This makes it a very popular choice of material for machine guards, screens, secondary glazing, plastic greenhouse panels and many more, where its abrasion-resistant surface retains the clarity and glass-look aesthetic of the material.
