This latest addition to the Additives for Recycling (A4R) portfolio of solutions helps bring incompatible polymers, such as PP and PE, together by forming them into a homogenous polymer mixture that increases mechanical properties based on polymer modification and will be exhibited at the upcoming Fakuma International Trade Fair for Plastics Processing. This compatibilizer additive can help overcome some of these challenges, allowing industry players to continue incorporating greater quantities of PCR in polyolefin applications. Cesa Unify A4R is a compatibilizer additive for use with recycled polyolefins, which helps enhance circularity.

Lids and protective films produced with this food contact-safe additive also remain clear, so that consumers can observe the food quality.  This additive can be used in both rigid and flexible food packaging, including mono- and multilayer structures.
