FEP Film
FEP film is a transparent fluoroplastic with a unique combination of properties:
- Resistant to high temperatures (204 ° C)
- Chemically resistant
- Ultimate non-stick surface
- UV stable
- Not flammable
- High electrical insulation
- Very transparent
This unique combination of properties makes FEP film interesting for a variety of applications. Think of the flexvat for SLA, LCS and DPL 3D printers. UV disinfection systems, FEP as release foil for molds in the composite industry. In the chemical industry, because of the unique chemical resistance, as gasket or as separation foil. These are just a few examples.

Holscot Europe has set up a special site in order to be able to easily meet the large demand for FEP film: www.FEP-Film.com. We sell here FEP films cut to size, per meter or also more complex machine cut parts. The FEP film is on stock, and will sent within 2 working days, payment can be easily online and delivery is worldwide.
Buy FEP film online? Cut to size, on length or roll of full rolls.
You can choose from 7 different standard thicknesses:
- FEP 25 micron thick x 1220 mm maximum width
- FEP 50 micron thick x 1220 mm maximum width
- FEP 100 micron thick x 1220 mm maximum width
- FEP 127 micron thick x 1220 mm maximum width
- FEP 250 micron thick x 915 mm maximum width
- FEP 500 micron thick x 915 mm maximum width
- FEP 1000 micro thick x 915 mm maximum width
If you do not yet know exactly which thickness is most suitable for your application, we also offer a number of FEP sample packages.
Manipulations of FEP film and specials
In addition to the "standard" FEP film, we can also supply glassbacked film. The glassbacked FEP film is resistant to virtually all chemicals on the FEP side and can be attached to almost any surface on the glass side.
We also have years of experience in manipulating FEP film, we even won the prestigious Plunkett Award in the past. We can offer FEP films as:
By manipulating FEP film we can make various products such as FEP fuel tanks, FEP lens protection caps, FEP bags, containers, belts and much more.
