• Being halogen-free it supports the attainability of eco-labels for customer products.
• Easy to handle, no dust (polymer classification under REACH).
• No smell or fumes during the processing.
PLANET
Raw materials and sustainable sourcing
• High material efficiency in production with yield close to 100%.
• More than 20% renewable content (vegetable based).
Resource efficiency and environmental protection
• Low water consumption during production.
• Waste is used for thermal recovery.
• Increased efficiency as a light stabilizer in films and fibers.
• Contributes to reducing plastic waste and "greenhouse gas" emissions by increasing service life of equipped products.
PERFORMANCE
Integrated sustainable business
• Multifunctional product: works as flame retardant, processing aid, light stabilizer and dispersing agent antioxidant.
• Easy to handle as a dust free granular product - developed in close collaboration with customers.
• Direct dosage without additional extrusion step.
Performance advantages
• Complies with fire safety standards such as DIN 4102-1, class B2.
• Efficient at low loading levels.
• No adverse impact on final properties of plastics.
• No blooming or plate out.
• Ideal for industrial building and construction uses (insulation sheets).
