TIVAR™ Sterra™ ESD UHMW-PE electro static dissipative shapes are produced from re-processed, industrial ultra high molecular weight polyethylene materials. These recycled shapes are re-purposed for use in a variety of industries such as agriculture and grain handling, as well as bulk material and parcel handling.
As a premium grade that is both economical and eco-friendly, TIVAR™ Sterra™ ESD UHMW-PE components exhibit excellent abrasion and corrosion resistance, outstanding impact strength, minimal moisture absorption and a low coefficient of friction. For these reasons, TIVAR™ Sterra™ ESD UHMW-PE is often a favored lining material for conveyor, chute and hopper applications, where electrical charge build-ups are prevalent.
As part of the Sterra™ product portfolio, TIVAR™ Sterra™ ESD contains recycled UHMW-PE and therefore is associated with a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to similar materials derived from non-recycled feedstocks.
