The thermoplastic polymer base resin used also enables recyclability to support the company’s sustainability goals.

They also offer the ability for producers seeking more flexibility in managing plastic material inventory to store large quantities of virgin or recycled resin and order flame-retardant concentrates as needed for individual projects.

It is increasingly becoming the most popular material of choice due to its versatile characteristics and recyclability.
