Kaveri's Polymer Liners for Tipper Trucks: Non-sticky unloading of material
Bangalore-based Kaveri Ultra Polymers has been manufacturing polymer industrial products for use in material handling plants and other engineering industries for more than four decades. The company also has the distinction of winning ‘Top Exporters Award’ from the Government of India for three consecutive years.
Kaveri commenced operation in the year 1972 with the manufacturing of engineering plastic industrial products. It later diversified into various product categories to become a multi-product company. It ventured into manufacturing of polymer liners followed by rubber liners as a solution to the flow problem encountered by bulk material handling plants.
It has been noticed that many types of materials loaded into a tipper trucks tend to cling and stick to the tipper floor and sides when the hoist is fully extended. Most tipper trucks' operators have spent hours shovelling stuck materials and cleaning the residue from the tippers after discharge. Some operators try to jerk the tipper when the hoist is fully extended so that the stuck materials are released with the gravity and momentum. As a solution, Kaveri introduced PolySlide Liners, which have been successfully used internationally as a lining in tipper bodies, and with several advantages over metal.

Kaveri UV Grade PolySlide Liners - Ideal solution for fleet owners
Kaveri UV Grade PolySlide Liners are an ideal solution to the ‘carry back’ problem faced by fleet owners while transporting bulk materials. PolySlide Liners are lighter than conventional steel liners and of high tensile strength. Their non-stick paraffin-like surface ensures that even materials with high moisture do not stick to the tipper truck's body.It has been noticed that many types of materials loaded into a tipper trucks tend to cling and stick to the tipper floor and sides when the hoist is fully extended.
