Bagging Films
Bagging Film for Closed Molding, Vacuum Bagging and Out-of-Autoclave Processes
Bagging film is critical to the success of manufacturing parts with closed molding, vacuum bagging, and out-of-autoclave processes. At Aerovac, we offer a comprehensive range of bagging film products with features such as welded wide format or tailored shapes to reduce labor costs.
The Aerovac range of high-performance bagging films ensure precision, quality and efficiency. Our bagging films are available as roll stock or as engineered kits.
Aerovac Bagging Films are high quality, accessible, easy to customize and supported by experienced technical experts. From global facility locations, Aerovac’s research and development capability is focused on unique customer solutions. Whether it’s humidity resistance or tailored formatting to reduce labor costs, your needs are our priority.
Our Quickdraw films are embossed to eliminate the need for breather when debulking.
Aerovac Bagging Films are available through Composites One in North America, or globally through the Aerovac Distributor Network.
