SOUTH AFRICAN REGIONAL OFFERING Materials and solutions for heat, wear & corrosive applications

Solving common challenges relating to aggressive, abrasive, and toxic media

The MCG Advanced Materials Division is a specialist fluorocarbon processor, chemical equipment supplier, and leading manufacturer and supplier of high-quality engineering plastics in South Africa for all heat, wear and corrosive applications.

Advanced engineering plastics provide you and your application with high dimensional stability, superior release, elevated thermal stability, and more. These materials are lightweight and mechanically tough – they can withstand rigorous operating conditions while meeting demanding performance requirements and tight tolerances. Plus, our in-house machining capabilities mean we can manufacture your engineering plastic components to precision for any application.

  • Exceptional impact and abrasion resistance
  • Superior wear resistance
  • Low friction properties
  • Excellent sliding properties due to highly homogenous and waxy surfaces
