MEXICO CITY – PolyOne will announce at Plastimagen, one of Mexico’s most prominent plastics trade shows, that it has recently opened a new distribution warehouse in San Luis Potosí, and has added more regional sales support for polymer distribution throughout Mexico.  Caption: From automotive parts to packaging and vibrant coloration, PolyOne is showcasing new innovations and ideas for building smarter and more efficient products at Plastimagen 2016.

From regulatory compliance and quality assurance to manufacturing efficiency and continuous innovation, these are the challenges the global healthcare industry continues to face,” said Say Eng Lee, general manager Color Asia, at PolyOne. OnCap™ Laser Marking Additives: This additive technology can be customformulated for specific resins and laser types, and provides high contrast, permanent and repeatable markings in one step for increased manufacturing efficiency 

India is an emerging market with one of the fastest growing economies in the world,” said Holger Kronimus, vice president, Europe, at PolyOne. With the most recent addition of TPE production, PolyOne enables manufacturers to source all of their specialty polymer requirements from a single domestic source.

Recently completed applications on display will include a paint replacement project for one of the world’s largest manufacturers of appliances, and a consumer product for a leading global supermarket chain.  The trade show in Friedrichshafen, Germany runs from October 17-21, 2017. 

Producing your plastisol in-house can be one way to save costs, but it also comes with a number of challenges that could have an impact on your overall operations. Equipment maintenance: Maintaining plastisol mixing equipment up to industry standards may prove costly, and can require a significant amount of time from production operators.

For example, an EU directive for use of rPET in beverage bottles will increase from 25 percent in 2025 to 30 percent in 2030. PolyOne testing shows that ColorMatrix Amosorb 4020G is one of the most robust oxygen scavengers for PET rigid containers, with negligible effects on efficacy for the rPET grades tested, while other competitive materials lost almost all oxygen scavenging ability with rPET content as low as 20 percent.
