This broad line of additives includes Mevopur chemical foaming agents that can help reduce material use by up to 20 percent, providing another way to increase sustainability in healthcare packaging products. They also eliminate the need for secondary coating or wetting processes to achieve equivalent performance while also reducing production costs. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs. Higher productivity: The improved flow properties of the Versalloy solution enabled the hose manufacturer to increase throughput by two seconds, which in turn reduced total system costs.
