Together with the proper cable design, our ECCOH specialty formulations will help manufacturers meet CPR requirements for all power, control and communication cables used in buildings, including optical fiber cables,” said Holger Kronimus, VP Europe and general manager, Specialty Engineered Materials, PolyOne.

Available in masterbatch form, the colorants have been created to include materials such as almond shells, glitter flakes, fibers and other special effects.

PlastiComp has steadily grown through its ability to replace metal and lightweight products with unique and complex long fiber technology (LFT) composite formulations. 

Tailored to customer design and performance specifications, panels are engineered with custom formulated resins, structural core materials, and fibers to achieve specific stiffness, strength, weight, performance and cost targets. The unique manufacturing process yields uniform quality throughout the panel, ensuring complete resin impregnation, high fiber volume content, low void content, uniform thickness, and core bonding throughout.
