Who is AerO Coated Fabrics

AerO Coated Fabrics which does Extrusion Coating and Film Extrusion was founded by 2 thermoplastics experts: Rinus Aerts who is a chemist, TPO / PVC technician and R&D expert with 40 years’ experience, and Fred Roffelsen (AerO), entrepreneur in the Plastic Industry.

Adding this with the latest technology of a brand new, state of the art 2.200 mm wide extrusion coating calendar in 2018, expanded and updated during the years there, with experienced production staff, familiar with the finesses and details of extrusion coating equipment, allowed us within 3 years “to become the quality coating specialist” in Western Europe.

In March 2021 AerO Coated Fabric was purchased by CaPlast Kunststoffverarbeitungs GmbH and Fred Roffelsen then decided to retire. In April 2023, CaPlast was purchased together with AerO Coated Fabrics by the Kingspan Group. AerO will continue to focus on R&D and special production for its customers as before. We are currently busy expanding our production site and will move to a new location that is more than twice as large on the adjacent business park in mid-2025.

Supported by our own laboratory extruder, financial capacity, and specialized R&D support of CaPlast, AerO Coated Fabrics is birthplace of new coating combinations of product solutions and market developments.

We produce high end PVC and non PVC coated (technical textile) products for: dancing floors, flexible acoustic separating curtains, conveyor belts, sewage pipe renovation CIPP, concrete silo protection, pool covers, cow mattresses, solar film, rubber packings and many more coating solutions. All of which is specially developed for specific needs. Our ambition and policy guides us to support society with better solutions using recyclable materials, if possible free from plasticizers and more secure in application using flame retardant components, in combination with UV stable solutions.

Altogether, you could describe AerO Coated Fabrics as being: modern, ambitious, R&D focused, capable of offering flexibility in manufacturing Extrusion Coating and Film Extrusion, short delivery time, smaller production runs, excellent service, and use of our „expertise and experience“ to deliver the best product. Our internal motto; ‘we do it together’

That’s why we dare to say: “We solve your challenge”
