PVC coated Fabric for Container Liner

Introduction

Containers are indispensable carriers for import and export trade. The internal protective materials are usually virgin polyethylene or PVC coated fabrics. The inner lining of containers made of PVC coated fabric is economical, efficient and easy to use. Whether it is food-grade products or chemical-grade products, PVC coated fabrics can provide them with different protective advantages.

What is PVC coated fabric?

PVC coated fabric is a composite material made by using high-strength Polyester or Nylon as the base fabric and covering the surface with a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coating through impregnation or calendering processes. It combines the flexibility of fabric with the protective property of plastic. By adjusting the formula and process, it can achieve multiple functions such as waterproofing, wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

The advantages of making container liners with PVC coated fabric

High durability

Anti-wear and tear: The high-strength fibers of the base fabric, combined with a PVC coating, can withstand the friction and impact during the loading and unloading of goods, preventing the liner from cracking and causing goods leakage.

Strong weather resistance: Adaptable to extreme temperature differences ranging from -40℃ to 100℃, resistant to ultraviolet rays, rain and salt spray erosion, extending the service life of the gasket to 5-8 years (traditional PE gaskets only last 2-3 years).

Anti-aging performance: PVC coatings with added UV stabilizers can effectively delay material aging and reduce procurement costs caused by frequent replacements.

High protection

100% waterproof and moisture-proof: The sealed PVC coating can completely prevent water vapor from penetrating, protecting goods that are prone to moisture such as grains, chemicals, and electronic products.

Anti-pollution and anti-corrosion: Its resistance to acids, alkalis and oil stains makes it suitable for transporting high-risk goods such as chemicals and minerals, preventing the cargo boxes from being contaminated.

Anti-mold and antibacterial: The specially formulated PVC layer inhibits the growth of mold, ensuring the hygiene and safety of food, textiles and other goods.

It is lightweight and can be installed quickly

Compared with metal or rubber gaskets, PVC coated fabric reduces the weight by more than 60%, lowers the self-weight of containers, and increases the volume of goods transported in a single trip. Flexible materials can be folded and stored, reducing the occupation of storage space and facilitating reuse. The container liners made of it can be easily installed by just one or two operators, which is efficient and labor-saving.

Safety and environmental

PVC coated fabric has passed the EU REACH and RoHS certifications, contains no heavy metals or harmful plasticizers, and meets the environmental protection requirements for cross-border transportation. PVC coated fabric has food-grade safety standards and can provide additional protection for food.

Highly customized and flexibly adaptable to demands

Flexible size: Supports customization according to container specifications (such as 20GP/40HQ, etc.) to fit the internal structure of the container.

Function expansion: Flame-retardant coatings (conforming to the EN 13501 fire protection standard), anti-static layers and other functions can be added to meet the transportation requirements of special goods.

Color and LOGO: Supports enterprise logo printing to enhance brand image.

Conclusion

The container liner made of PVC coated fabric is not only a "protective shield" for goods transportation, but also a key choice for cost reduction and efficiency improvement. Its characteristics of taking into account durability, protection, environmental friendliness and economy have made it a benchmark solution in the international logistics field.
