30 Years of Manufacturing High Performance Thermoset Polymers

Volatile Free Inc. is a manufacturer of high-performance thermoset polymers. We’ve been providing our products to a vast number of markets for 30 years. While our facility is headquartered in Brookfield, WI, we distribute throughout the United States and even worldwide.

“Everyone in the industry is looking for a gimmick. Our gimmick is good, quality products,” says President Nancy Hochmuth. Many of VFI’s products have been proven to withstand impact, excessive wear, and other physical feats. We stand behind their durability and sustainability in any application. You can trust that you are getting quality, long-lasting materials every time.

Why VFI?

1. VFI is Customer-Driven

Something that has always set VFI apart from other manufacturers is our commitment to our customers. We put you at the center of everything we do. New or existing customers come to us with concerns or requirements for products they’re not finding anywhere else. Our lab techs then generate formulas tailored to address these specific needs and pain points. We listen to the feedback we get, not just from our own customers but from those using competing products. From there, we aim to improve and create new products based on that feedback.

As a smaller company, we also provide a more personalized experience. We service our customers the old-fashioned way, which means being there when you need us. When you have questions about our products, we do our best to provide you with quick responses. Providing exceptional customer service has also allowed us to gain long-term industry partners.

2. VFI Provides Accurate Properties

At VFI, we know that when you come to us for a solution, you’re looking for reliable information about our products before you commit to our company. Our technical data sheets are a useful starting point for assessing our materials and comparing them to our competitors. Properties reported on each TDS come from credible ASTM industry-standard tests and our own rigorous testing standards. The tests are conducted on standardized equipment under specific conditions (temperature, load, time, etc.).

Some companies may misrepresent properties based on other test conditions and list them as opposed to the testing standards. When it comes to our products, we ensure that you only receive accurate and transparent properties based on industry-standard tests. Our technical data sheets also go through a thorough review process for completeness before publishing, so you know they can be trusted. By listing accurate properties, we provide you with the confidence and certainty you need to use our products.

3. VFI Offers Consistent Batching

Our facility may be smaller than others, but that doesn’t stop us from providing you with what you need when you need it. We have the equipment and personnel to make large batches as well as continuous, consistent small batches. Consistent batching allows us to not only achieve quick turnaround times but also deliver reliable performance and quality in every product we offer. We ensure freshness of our materials because they won’t be sitting in inventory for months like they would in facilities that only make big batches.

Since we’re involved in a variety of markets, we know how much precision matters in any application, and even the slightest variation in a product can lead to poor results. Our team follows protocols to ensure quality control is upheld, which means you can rely on our products to deliver the same outstanding results batch after batch. VFI is committed to offering materials that not only meet but beat your expectations.

4. VFI Provides Technical Insight

Not all companies have an onsite lab with dedicated technicians willing to talk customers through their problems and find solutions. Our chemists have a lot of technical expertise and insight to come up with new and innovative formulas. VFI consistently researches, monitors trends, and develops new products to anticipate the needs of our customers.

We know that every customer who buys our products contributes to our success, which is why we put you first. If there’s something you’re looking for that you haven’t been able to find anywhere else, contact VFI today. We’ll help you find a product that works for your application, and if one is not readily available, we can work to customize a formula that does. Our aim is to offer products with unique properties and advantages that meet your specifications. And when you need it, you’ll have access to continual technical support.
