Uflex develops Satellite Thermal Radiation Insulation Film for ISRO

Noida, July 11 (UNI) Flex Films manufactures, the Indian Film Manufacturing Arm of India’s largest multinational flexible packaging materials and solution company Uflex Limited, will be supplying specialised Satellite Thermal Radiation Insulation Film to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).

Impressed by the wide range of polymeric films that Flex Films manufactures and the associated R and D capabilities that the company is globally recognised for, ISRO had approached the company earlier in September 2017 with a requirement of specialised film for passive thermal control of spacecraft components.

Taking this requirement in its stride, the engineers at Flex Films India developed a solution for ISRO in a record time period of six months which was subjected to space environmental tests and passed through all parameters and tests.
