THE STORY
The store about how we created this silicone coated webbing
For long years ago, We had a customer ( branded confidential reason could not bring it ), Which specialize in baby stroller business, We were selling them the uncoated webbing, They had some customer issues, The Baby will chewing their webbing, As we know webbing is not safety to the baby’s chewing. So they find we see if can offering them some baby safe webbing.
We sell TPU coated webbing as well ( We did not do PVC coating, Which PVC coating is bad quality only uses on those cheap products ), TPU coating is better than PVC, We tried to make a very nice quality TPU coating, But still could not meet the safety uses aims.
As you can see on our site, We make silicone, Silicone uses on many kind of baby stuff, Like Baby bowl, Spoons, Teethers, So we wanna see if we can use silicone coated on the webbing, Per that time, Base on market, There is no one can reaching it out.
Although there are many vendors can apply TPU and PVC coating on market, But no one can make Silicone coated on webbing. There are many challenges, From different material flowability, Temperature, Process machine equipment etc.
In 2022 this year, We already spent 8 years find out a right fit silicone material, And adjust our machine to fit the production process. We finally worked out the silicone coated webbing. Silicone coated webbing not safe from chewing by kids, The safety, But it also softer than others coating, Skin touches nicely, A better looking on surface.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TPU/PVC AND SILICONE ?
About what is the difference between TPU/PVC and Silicone, Let’s talk about PVC first, PVC is stand for polyvinyl chloride, Is some kind of plastic, The PVC coated webbing is most for use on pet collars, And is those cheap pet collars. We had a job with our some brand customers, We talk on market there is some way can make a more safe PVC coating material. But customer said, No matter how you can the PVC coating is, It is still a PVC plastic.
So yes, No matter how you make the PVC is, It is still a cheap quality materials, If you wanna make a cheap cost pet collar is, You can consider this material.
For TPU, TPU is stand for thermoplastic urethanes, Compared TPU and Silicone, From this two ways.
1、 Material
Silica gel is a kind of rubber. High quality silica gel is pure natural. TPU is a kind of soft plastic that is popular in the market.
2、 Price
Without considering the additional special process, the price of silica gel must be higher than that of TPU, which is mainly determined by the scarcity and manufacturing cost.
TPU coating is not like PVC, It is more health than PVC, But TPU still not good use on baby chewing materials,
