Plastics are renowned for their durability, aesthetics, ease of handling and recyclability. Competition The production of plastics and the manufacturing of custom and proprietary formulated color and additives systems for the plastics industry are highly competitive. The AEPW enables and brings to scale solutions to minimize and manage plastic waste and promote solutions for used plastics that move towards a circular economy.

Therma-Tech formulations have been shown to improve thermal conductivity by 50-100 times that of conventional plastics and can be used in a wide range of thermal management applications.

Silicone/PVC/TPV replacement for medical tubing The plasticizer used in PVC compound restricts PVC in many medical applications.
