From the early introduction of melt-processable fluoropolymers such as FEP through to today’s advanced materials including PFA and ETFE, we have developed strong in-house manufacturing expertise and a source of trusted suppliers and partners. This long-term specialisation allows us to support demanding applications where performance, consistency and reliability are critical.
Holscot operates as a manufacturer, producing directly from fluoropolymer granules rather than sourcing finished product. This gives our customers greater control over specification, improved consistency in production, and more reliable lead times.
Today, Holscot offers a broad and flexible range of fluoropolymer solutions. Our capabilities include:
We work closely with customers to understand the end-use environment and deliver the right solution, whether for chemical resistance, non-stick performance, electrical insulation or high-purity applications.
Our products are used across a wide range of industries, including aerospace, chemical processing, food and beverage, print and lamination, and emerging sectors such as EV, medical, pharmaceutical and semiconductor.
Our approach is straightforward — combine technical understanding with practical manufacturing capability, and make fluoropolymers easier to work with.
Our main office, largest manufacturing facility, and warehouse are located in Grantham, England. We also have a manufacturing facility in Scotland and a European base Holscot Europe located in the Netherlands offering sales and warehousing for mainland Europe.
Our Grantham site is the centre of our manufacturing capabilities; from here we manage all our extrusion using FEP, PFA and ETFE products directly from raw material, producing tubing from 4mm up to 400mm diameter. Depending on the application, wall thickness can be controlled from as low as 0.1mm through to over 2.5mm.
This combination of scale, flexibility and in-house expertise is rare. We produce both custom extrusions and a wide range of standard sizes, allowing us to support customers with application-specific solutions as well as ongoing production requirements. The site also includes dedicated facilities for shatter-resistant covers used in UV and fluorescent lighting.
Building on our extrusion capability, we manufacture a range of downstream products including heat shrinkable sleeving, pipe and hose liners, and tubing for high-performance applications for example the seal industry.
Working with fluoropolymers requires specialist knowledge. Our team in Grantham has developed proven in-house techniques for welding and thermoforming these materials, allowing us to go beyond standard extrusion. Our welding methods produce clean, consistent joints, enabling the manufacture of large diameter sleeves, while our vacuum forming capability allows us to create complex, custom shapes. These processes can be combined to produce components such as bladders, diaphragms and containment solutions for demanding environments, including space and advanced engineering applications.
