Frequently Asked Questions

Woven polymer products offer certain key features and advantages that non-wovens aren’t able to. Our woven products provide specific levels of permeability, durability and longevity that are only achievable with the types of woven construction that we manufacture.

Extended exposure to high levels of UV, typical to the southern hemisphere, has an exponentially damaging effect to any polymer over time. Our polypropylene is UV stabilised for southern hemisphere UV exposure but is less stable than our UV stabilised high density polyethylene (HDPE) polymer based product range. Our proprietary HDPE range has been designed with the harshest UV environments in mind and has been proven to outlast anything else available on the market under those harsh environmental conditions.

Spilo is committed to manufacturing recyclable, long-use polymer-based Products. To that end, Spilo is developing new ways to close the loop on products that we, and others, have manufactured.
