Processors and converters of flexible thermoplastic film often do an excellent job of meeting the requirements for food protection and attractive marketing. Today, thanks to a development cooperation between a leading global supplier of additive and colorant masterbatches and a major producer of polyolefin thermoplastics, packaging film producers have the opportunity to select film- grade polypropylene for sealing layers that are highly transparent, can be efficiently processed and converted, and yield film that provides an excellent seal and yet still enables easy opening.

We also invested to begin thermoplastic elastomer production in Brazil, another important regional market where we’ve identified opportunities to grow and serve customers. Thermoplastics offer versatility and a wide range of applications. Garratt worked for DuPont Dow Elastomers (a global manufacturer of engineered thermoset rubber and thermoplastic elastomer materials) in market development and product management positions, culminating in a regional commercial leadership role for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
