Maxxam™ REC Recycled Polyolefin Formulations
Maxxam™ REC Recycled Polyolefins are formulated
with 25–100% recycled resin from post-industrial
recycled (PIR) and post-consumer recycled (PCR)
sources.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Formulated with 25–100% recycled resin
from PIR & PCR sources
• Reduces waste and supports the circular
economy
• Achieves equivalent performance to
standard polyolefin formulations
• Can be recycled at end of life
• Provides good stiffness, durability,
impact resistance and UV stability
• Enables customized performance
characteristics depending on
application need
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
Maxxam REC Polyolefins are suitable for use across
many industries and applications where traditional
polyolefin materials are used, including:
• Transportation - HVAC systems, engine guards,
battery housings, flame retardant applications
• Industrial - Structural parts, furniture
• Consumer - Household appliances,
personal care items, packaging, office supplies,
food contact applications
• Electrical and Electronic – Housings, buttons,
junction boxes
SUSTAINABILITY BENEFITS
• Formulated with 25–100% recycled resin
from PIR and/or PCR sources
• Reduces waste and supports the circular
economy
• Reduces carbon footprint
• Can be recycled at end of life

ONCOLOR™ COLORANTS FOR
WIRE & CABLE
Key Features
• A color range for unfilled TPU, providing good
opacity at low addition levels
• Includes colors for filled, non-halogen flame
retardant TPUs that are designed to enhance
color strength
• The same color concentrate reference can be
used for both unfilled and filled TPU resin,
minimizing inventory
• Custom solutions can be formulated for
charging cables to help maintain performance
including good weather and hydrolysis
resistance as well as providing high color
strength for bright colors
• Compared to regular colorants, OnColor™
Colorants for wire and cable can help reduce
dosing levels and maximize the original
properties of the TPU material

The inclusion of these additives
can help a cable to pass flame resistance tests,
even if the resin originally used is not flame
retardant
• Cesa™ Light Additives: UV light stabilizers that
improve weather resistance and provide long
term protection against weather degradation
• Semi-conductive TPU formulations to
enhance cable performance
• Cesa™ Laser Additives: Includes laser-marking
additives for durable cable marking.
This can help to reduce
inventory and can allow the use of general-
purpose resin
