Specialty coated label manufacturer to exhibit at the industry’s premier PCB conference, April 29, 2026 — DCU Convention Center, Worcester, MA
WESTMORELAND, NH — Polyonics, Inc., a 30-year leader in engineering high-performance label materials for demanding manufacturing environments, will exhibit at PCB East 2026, taking place April 28 – May 1, 2026, at the DCU Convention Center in Worcester, Massachusetts. The company will be present on the exhibition floor at Booth #314 on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, where its team of materials engineers will be available to discuss PCB identification and traceability challenges with attendees.
PCB East is North America’s premier conference and exhibition dedicated exclusively to the printed circuit board community, bringing together OEMs, contract manufacturers, materials suppliers, equipment vendors, and design engineers for multi-day technical education, networking, and product evaluation.
Apex Series Label Materials: Engineered for the Harshest PCB Environments
Polyonics will use the event to showcase its Apex Series, a next-generation platform of specialty coated polyimide label materials developed specifically for PCB identification in high-demand reflow and wave soldering environments. The Apex Series addresses the most critical challenges facing PCB manufacturers today: increasing miniaturization, higher lead-free reflow temperatures, aggressive flux chemistries, and strict end-to-end traceability requirements across automotive, aerospace, and medical applications.
Key performance specifications of the Apex Series include:
- +72% improved flux solder resistance, and +15% improved resistance to post-solder cleaning agents, including saponifiers, aqueous cleaners, and IPA-based solutions over previous-generation materials
- Proven heat resistance up to 572°F (300°C) without charring, yellowing, or print degradation
- ESD-safe label constructions meeting critical surface resistivity thresholds for electrostatic-sensitive assembly environments
- UL recognition supporting compliance labeling requirements across multiple industry standards
The Apex Series is designed to maintain barcode readability and adhesion integrity through multiple reflow and wave soldering cycles, ensuring that traceability systems remain intact from first assembly through final shipment and beyond.
Quote from Polyonics
“PCB East brings together exactly the professionals who understand why label performance matters, engineers and quality managers who’ve seen firsthand what happens when identification materials fail under reflow or in post-solder cleaning.”
“We’re looking forward to putting the Apex Series in front of that audience and showing what a purpose-engineered label material can do.”
