Plastics & Polymers

Stiffness without brittleness, flame class without a loading penalty you cannot process, and cost taken out of the compound without giving back mechanical performance.

Stiffness & dimensional stability

Talc, treated GCC, calcined kaolin and wollastonite to raise modulus and control shrinkage and warp.

Halogen-free flame class

ATH, natural magnesium hydroxide and mineral flame-retardant systems for halogen-free compounds, cable and construction profiles.

Cost-down that holds

High-loading filler strategies that reduce polymer content without losing impact or surface quality.

Electrical & cable

Calcined kaolin and low-conductivity grades where insulation performance is the specification.

Technical service

Loading, dispersion,
and what the line can actually run

A grade that performs on a lab plaque and blocks your extruder is not a solution. We qualify against your process, not only your datasheet.

  • Process-first selection. Twin-screw or Banbury, masterbatch or direct dosing — the answer changes with the equipment.
  • Samples with data. Full technical data with every sample — not just a bag and a phone number.
  • Scale-up support. Once qualified, we lock in the supply route, packaging and stock level before you launch.
  • Second source planning. Where it matters, we help you qualify an alternate grade in advance rather than during a shortage.
