Manufactured
to be Tough

The strength of Versitex® lies in its advanced manufacturing process. Continuous glass fibers are combined with polypropylene to form unidirectional sheets, which are cross-plied and laminated. This process delivers a highly durable material that can withstand corrosion, moisture, and exposure to common cleaning chemicals, even in the most demanding conditions.


Versitex® sheets can be manufactured with an optional fabric backing or bonding film to improve adhesion to injected or poured foam systems. This feature supports the development of lightweight, high-performance panels suitable for refrigeration and insulation applications. Our products can also be drilled, fastened, or riveted for added versatility.


Depending on the final size and thickness required for an application (from 0.040 inch to 0.200 inch), Versitex® can be rolled into coils up to 1,200 feet in length or cut into sheets and palletized.


Made for trailers, recreational vehicles, building products, public transportation, intermodal, material handling & storage, and more.
