In the wire and cable industry, thermoplastics serve to protect by providing electrical insulation, flame resistance, durability, water resistance and color coding to wire coatings and connectors.
In the transportation industry, plastic has proven to be durable, lightweight and corrosion resistant while offering fuel savings, design flexibility and high performance, often replacing traditional materials such as metal and glass.
We believe this contract assures the availability of adequate amounts of PVC resin.
