Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic Plastic Waste

Plastic is a logical and proven choice for vehicle designers and engineers who want to reduce weight, improve performance, and manage costs. But until recently, molded-in color plastic parts were not the go-to choice for exterior vehicle components, mainly because they couldn’t meet performance and appearance targets.

The USP 661 regulation is in place to support safety of pharmaceutical packaging, and specifically plastic packaging. The revision process for the plastics packaging chapters of the USP-NF, including USP 661, has been underway for several years.
