PPGI

Window and door installers in Australia face a problem that’s common in the trade but rarely addressed directly: protective film left on-site during construction is exposed to months of UV and heat, causing the adhesive to harden. When the film is finally removed, it leaves residue on glass and aluminum profiles — generating cleaning costs and end-homeowner complaints. This Melbourne-based SME came to Plashield in June 2025 to resolve exactly that.

A Saudi Arabian metal sandwich panel manufacturer faced two interconnected production problems: first, standard 50μm PE film caused self-adhesion difficulties during 3000m extra-long roll production, with frequent roll breaks generating line downtime. Second, a multi-supplier import procurement model created high sourcing management overhead, with batch-to-batch performance variation wasting line calibration time. Plashield developed a custom 25μm ultra-thin PE protective film (3000m roll length) and simultaneously consolidated multi-category film supply into a single-source arrangement. Cooperation since March 2024, with annual purchase volume exceeding USD 200,000.
