VPI: Innovation in Pool Filter Boxes

In the pool filter housing industry, the most widely used production systems are traditional ones such as Spray-Up and Hand-Lay-Up. However, VPI (Vacuum Press Infusion) technology developed by Alan Harper, along with its reusable silicone lid, offers substantial improvements in efficiency, cost, and sustainability.

Main benefits:

• Process time: Total reduction in manufacturing time, optimizing productivity.
• Production cost: Reduction in the final cost of the part by 30%, with a significant improvement in its mechanical properties.
• Industrial waste: Reduction of waste to 1%, resulting in minimal environmental impact.

Plaquimet’s technical team provides comprehensive support throughout the entire process: from mold production, the selection of reinforcements and resins, to the manufacturing of the VPI silicone membrane, staff training, and the production of the first parts.

This solution represents a technological leap forward for the sector, combining efficiency, quality, and environmental commitment.
