Vulcanized Fiber has been at the heart of our company since we began in 1927. It is still a significant part of our business today, both in the creation of stamped Vulcanized Fiber components and through the sale of Vulcanized Fiber Sheets, Coils and Roll stock. Vulcanized Fiber is a chemically pure Cellulose material which remains popular due to many valuable attributes.
Vulcanzied Fiber is available in English and/or Metric Units.

At New Process Fibre NEMA Grade Laminates are stamped into components ranging from 0.005″ to 0.250″ in thickness and are used in the Aerospace, Automotive, Electronics, Industrial, Marine, Petroleum and Power Distribution Industries.
NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) designated laminates are unclad materials comprised of different resin systems, such as Epoxy, Phenolic, Silicone, Melamine and Polyester, incorporating woven glass weave, non-woven and some none at all. Each laminate exhibits unique electrical, mechanical and chemical performance characteristics and have specific uses based on these criteria.
At New Process Fibre these laminates are stamped into components ranging from 0.005″ to 0.250″ in thickness and are used in the Aerospace, Automotive, Electronics, Industrial, Marine, Petroleum and Power Distribution Industries.
