• Offer pre-color support to achieve an approved silver color
formulation
• Provide a metallic look with good weather resistance and
wear performance for the exterior part
• Shorten development time to gain durability approval
• Offered color options that met desired metal
color and texture, which was different from
an ordinary plastic feel
• Achieved excellent wear performance and
weather resistance, qualifying it to replace
metal
• Provided support in achieving durability
approval, resulting in significant time and
cost savings

Waste Minimization: Composites
Depending on the material, our composite and fiber solutions may run into challenges in finding outlets for waste to divert from landfill.
The plan includes a range of options, including repurposing scrap composite rods as fence posts, recycling of scrap glass, and recycling of composite finished goods.
