Stop thinking one-for-one: Rather than looking for materials that can replace a metal part using the identical geometry, designers are now capitalizing on the additional freedom to form plastics into net shapes. Knowledgeable suppliers can also open your eyes to material possibilities you may not have considered, either with new formulations or additives and fillers.

Additive Solutions for Biopolymers: Cesa™ Bio These additives are created to enhance bioplastics so you can continue delivering top-end products to the market.

Combination Colorants & Additives: Smartbatch™ Keep it simple: Get the color and additive enhancement you need from a single concentrate

By blending in a combination of special additives, these high-temperature, functional formulations are crosslinked when exposed to electron beam radiation. Low smoke & fume, non-halogen formulations with additional performance benefits

Some common requirements for which documentation or additional expertise during development can help include:  However, properties can be modified with fillers and/or additives. However, properties can be modified easily with fillers and/or additives. 

In addition to complying with all applicable laws and regulations, we actively pursue opportunities to go above and beyond in product safety where it makes sense. Given the sensitive nature of some of our customer’s applications we may partner with expert third parties for additional reviews.   In addition, we will use laboratories certified by Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) to ensure appropriate animal welfare.
