KEY MATERIALS FOR FILLS

MaterialMax TempPropertiesTypical Use
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)~50-60°C (122-140°F)Low cost, good corrosion resistance, flammable.Standard for most film & splash fills in HVAC and general industry.
PP (Polypropylene)~70-80°C (158-176°F)Higher temp tolerance, good chemical resistance.Hot water processes, chemical plants.
Wood (Redwood, Fir)VariesNatural rot resistance, but degrades over time.Older towers, specific industrial apps.
Ceramic / Clay>100°C (212°F+)Inert, fireproof, very heavy.Special high-temperature industrial processes.
