The new container, to be made from an impact-modified polypropylene, needed good sidewall stiffness and excellent impact resistance. Teams from both companies worked closely to understand the specific property needs, and then searched for an impact modifier solution that the manufacturer could readily blend into polypropylene at the molding machine.

We manufacture specialty long fiber composite pellets using a proprietary pultrusion process that melt impregnates continuous carbon, glass or other specialty fibers with thermoplastic polymer matrices ranging from polypropylene (PP) to PEEK to achieve high performance.  OnForce™ Long Glass Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene Composites

In addition to production, color matching, and quality control capabilities for fiber applications, the site houses a showroom featuring an extensive assortment of sample mono-color polypropylene yarn pompoms. The vast color choice in polypropylene is beneficial, particularly for carpet designers, who can now mix and match different samples under different light settings, offering a more versatile experience for selecting shades. Both polypropylene and polyester yarns in mono and three-color yarns can be spun on this line.
