The company is equipped to handle a customer’s tolling needs in a wide variety of polymers including PVC, PVC alloys, low-smoke, zero-halogen compounds, TPOs, TPRs as well as flame-retardant and UV concentrates.
The company’s plant is equipped with a wide range of processing equipment combined with a state-of-the-art lab. It now offers its customers complete toll compounding services.
