POLYMER ADDITIVES

AND PROCESS AIDS FOR PLASTICS PROCESSING

INNOVATIVE | POWERFUL | EFFICIENT

Plastics are essential to modern industry and innovation – and they will remain so. But to optimize production processes, unlock new design possibilities, and enhance performance, forward-thinking technological impulses are needed. That’s where Polytives comes in: Our solutions shorten cycle times, push the limits of processing, and maximize the performance of your plastics.

Welcome to Polytives.
Where innovation meets performance – and your plastics reach their full potential.

CORE COMPETENCIES IN PLASTICS PROCESSING

We don’t change the material – we change how it behaves in the process.
Our polymer additives enable targeted influence on the processing behavior without compromising the mechanical properties of the material. This allows for flexible adjustment of polymer processing characteristics and more efficient processes – without sacrificing quality or stability.

POLYMERS WE CAN ENHANCE WITH OUR ADDITIVES

Our plastic additives have already proven effective in numerous applications – both in virgin materials and recyclates.
They have been positively tested in various virgin and recycled polymers. In addition, other materials such as PE, PA, TPE, PHA, polyester, and TPU are addressable. The same conditions apply for their use in recyclates as in virgin materials – and our additives deliver results here as well. The polymers mentioned are based on specific, positive user feedback.

APPLICATIONS & KEY MARKETS

Our plastic additives are used wherever conventional materials reach their limits – in demanding processes as well as in the development of sustainable plastic solutions.
They specifically enhance the processing of a wide range of polymer systems without compromising the mechanical properties of the final product. This not only unlocks the potential of new applications but also allows for significant optimization of existing processes.

Whether working with biobased plastics, recycled materials, or highly filled compounds – our additives enable complex applications to be implemented reliably: efficiently, safely, and flexibly. This opens up new design possibilities in key markets such as mobility, lightweight construction, building, packaging, or interior design – laying the foundation for innovative designs and sustainable product solutions.
