The Input Stream Management confirms that bluesign® approved chemical products and raw materials are used in all steps of the manufacturing process.  The plastic mass is then shaped into filaments, spun, and texturized into an already-dyed yarn. The Input Stream Management ensures that bluesign® approved chemical products and raw materials are used in all steps of the manufacturing process.

These unidirectional fiber-reinforced strands are then cut into 1/2 inch (12 mm) composite pellets for convenient processing into net shapes via injection molding. Go-to material for metal replacement with favorable economics Marine Application Material Solutions

Although these process aids do not directly benefit preform manufacturers, who produce the initial plastic preforms, the advantages are realized at the bottle blower stage, where the preforms are heated and blown into their final bottle shapes. Bottle Quality: Bottle-blowing process aids can improve material distribution within the bottle. While these machines clearly measure energy savings (15–30%), they do not provide material distribution values.

All our panels are designed to retain projectiles and fragments at less weight than incumbent materials, with the additional benefits of corrosion resistance and electrical non-conductivity. Continuous fiber-reinforced composites in standard and custom shapes & sizes Protective Materials

New material and design options give consumers more freedom than ever before. Replace multiple metal parts with a single polymer shape. Engineered plastic compounds that can meet or exceed the properties and appearances of metal are creating even more opportunities for plastic parts to take over as an incumbent material.

High Strength Synthetic Fibers Outperform Steel Our Products add • Strength On an equivalent weight basis, fibers like Aramid, LCP, and PBO are 5-10 times stronger than steel. • Chemical Resistance High performance fibers resist soiling and the absorption of water, solvents, and other chemicals. • Abrasion Resistance HMPE as a jacketing material, is a great example of the excellent abrasion resistance of high performance fibers. • Fatigue Resistance Aramid Fibers have exceptional bending and tensile fatigue resistance. • Safer Handling Because synthetic fibers are flexible and weigh less than steel, they are easier to work with, lead to fewer weight-related injuries and completely eliminates fish hooks. • Dampening Synthetic fiber cables have excellent shock absorption and load dampening properties.
