In addition, they can be formulated with ingredients such as almond shells, natural fibers, and wood particles to deliver natural aesthetics.

Our expanding portfolio of offerings includes colorants, advanced composites, functional additives, engineered materials, and Dyneema®, the world's strongest fiber™. 

PlastiComp has steadily grown through its ability to replace metal and lightweight products with unique and complex long fiber technology (LFT) composite formulations. 

More Change the Way You Dye Textiles Change the way you dye fibers with a technology that uses no water and less energy than the classic bath-dyeing technology.

Our full range of material solutions include photovoltaic wire and cable that enable renewable energy infrastructure, superior UV weathering protection for solar power installations, and continuous fiber-reinforced composites for structural wind turbine components.  

Together with the proper cable design, our ECCOH specialty formulations will help manufacturers meet CPR requirements for all power, control and communication cables used in buildings, including optical fiber cables,” said Holger Kronimus, VP Europe and general manager, Specialty Engineered Materials, PolyOne.

Available in masterbatch form, the colorants have been created to include materials such as almond shells, glitter flakes, fibers and other special effects.
