When precision, consistency, and scalability matter, Sun Process Converting Inc. delivers. For more than 45 years, we’ve partnered with OEMs, manufacturers, and industrial suppliers as a trusted contract converting provider, offering the flexibility, expertise, and technical control needed to turn raw materials into production ready components.
From precision slitting and rewinding to sheeting, die cutting, and laminating, our vertically integrated operation ensures each job meets exact specifications while maintaining ISO 9001:2015 quality standards.
Contract converting is the process of transforming raw, rolled, or sheet materials into finished, application ready products using specialized equipment and precision processes. At Sun Process Converting, we work with a wide variety of pressure sensitive films, foils, vinyls, and laminates, applying coatings, adhesives, and surface finishes before converting them into precise shapes, rolls, or sheets.
Whether you supply your own material or select from our hundreds of in stock substrates, our converting team applies the same disciplined approach: consistent control, tight tolerances, and flawless finish.
Common goals of contract converting include:
In short, we take your material (or ours) and convert it into something that saves you time, reduces waste, and enhances production efficiency.
At the core of our converting operation are precision slitting and rewinding services designed to deliver clean edges, uniform tension, and repeatable roll consistency across a wide range of flexible materials.
Sun Process uses high performance slitter rewinders capable of handling diverse materials such as polyester, polycarbonate, PVC, aluminum foil, and multi-layer laminates. Our precision slitting systems maintain tight edge control, allowing us to produce slit rolls with widths down to fractions of an inch and tolerance levels that meet the most demanding customer specifications.
Whether you require narrow rolls for label stock, tapes, or adhesive liners, or wide master rolls for further downstream processing, we maintain exacting uniformity throughout the run.
Key Advantages of Our Slitting Services:
Our technicians understand how small deviations in slit width can affect lamination, coating, or printing performance. Every job is engineered to deliver consistent quality from start to finish.
Our slitting and rewinding process goes beyond simple roll division. We integrate precision tension control, optical edge guiding, and static elimination systems to produce rolls that unwind cleanly and perform flawlessly in your downstream equipment.
Whether you’re managing high-speed printing, laminating, or packaging lines, Sun Process provides tight, even rolls that run true, reducing material waste, downtime, and alignment issues.
Rewinding Benefits:
As a fully equipped custom coater and converter, Sun Process Converting integrates multiple in-house processes under one roof. This means we can handle every stage of production (from coating and laminating to slitting, sheeting, die cutting, and hot stamping) with full traceability and ISO-level process control.
Integrated Capabilities Include:
By combining these capabilities, we offer customers complete, start-to-finish contract converting solutions that reduce logistics complexity and ensure consistent results.
Our technical team has decades of experience converting diverse materials, including films, foils, papers, and specialty substrates, into high-performance, application ready formats.
Common Material Types Include:
Because we also offer custom coating and laminating, we can combine multiple layers of functional and decorative materials (such as adhesives, foils, and films) to meet specific customer or OEM requirements.
Sun Process Converting supports a wide spectrum of markets where precision and reliability are critical:
Each market has distinct material, adhesive, and dimensional requirements, and our converting team works closely with your engineers to ensure performance and compliance.
Sun Process operates under the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, ensuring every phase of production is measured, documented, and verified. Our vertically integrated model allows us to maintain complete control over all aspects of the converting process, from incoming material inspection through final slitting and packaging.
We also offer materials recognized under the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) component program, ensuring compliance with critical safety and performance standards. Every converted product is subject to rigorous in-process inspection and final QA testing.
Quality Highlights:
When you partner with Sun Process, you gain not just a converting vendor, but a manufacturing extension of your own quality system.
Our engineering team combines decades of practical experience with innovative problem solving to optimize every project for performance and cost. Whether you need tight tolerances, controlled adhesive thickness, or advanced tension management, we deliver with precision.
Because we manage coating, laminating, and converting in-house, we eliminate the need for multiple vendors, reducing freight, lead time, and handling costs. The result: shorter turnaround, consistent product quality, and reduced waste.
From prototype to large scale production, our equipment and processes are designed for scalability. We can quickly adapt to volume changes while maintaining the same level of quality and consistency.
Every project receives individualized attention from our technical representatives, who work directly with your engineering and procurement teams to ensure requirements are met and expectations exceeded.
With over 200,000 square feet of manufacturing, inventory, and office space in Mount Prospect, Illinois, our facility is equipped to handle even the most complex converting projects. Located just minutes from Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport, we maintain a national distribution system to serve customers across North America efficiently.
