In doing so, we innovate solutions that help our customers overcome their challenges or capitalize on opportunities provided by the fast-changing world and secular trends.

Lids and protective films produced with this food contact-safe additive also remain clear, so that consumers can observe the food quality. 

This technology helps to overcome these issues so that higher levels of rPET can be used, and it can be combined with recycle-friendly toners to offset the yellowing common with increased rPET content.

Excellence. So we took action, and haven’t looked back. Thermally stable Edgetek PK, with its excellent UV resistance, high purity and light weight, is an excellent high strength alternative to fluoropolymers.

These critical components demand materials with excellent weldability, low extractables, good kink resistance, biocompatibility, chemical resistance, mechanical properties, and more.   Glass-filled polyketone (PK) formulations provide a nylon alternative with excellent chemical resistance and a lower carbon footprint  The lower extractable profile of Versaflex™ HC BT218 thermoplastic elastomer provided a drop-in material replacement with excellent clarity and performance for a medical tubing extruder

These formulations deliver excellent flame retardancy and have good char formation. ECCOH™ 5809 Formulations have high oil, mud and chemical resistance, plus low shrinkage and excellent low-temperature properties. They have excellent temperature resistance (to - 40°C), good resistance to water absorption and environmental stress crack resistance.
