Elepol is a flexible electrical insulation material manufactured from a combination of polyester film and Presspahn which are bonded together with a synthetic adhesive. Sometimes known as Hyply, this high strength material combines good mechanical properties with strong electrical insulation strength whilst remaining highly flexible and very economical. This insulation material is also highly crease resistant when compared to conventional kraft based presspapers allowing it to be applied quickly and easily.

Used in electrical applications with continuous temperatures of 120ºC (short-term of 150ºC), Elepol electrical insulation displays good resistance to hot or cold water and dilute acids. It also withstands long-term exposure to common varnishes and solvents utilised in electrical applications. It is employed as ground and interleaving insulation in electric motor applications and also due in part to its good resistance to transformer oil, in transformer insulation.
