RTP Co., a compounder of custom engineered thermoplastics, is making available a series of specialty compounds using post-consumer content resins.
“Our PCC compounds have distinct environmental advantages over non-recycled materials and are an ideal solution for those needing to source greener products,” says David Dodds, technical marketing manager for RTP. “RTP Company has the engineering and compounding expertise to tailor PCC compounds to target specific performance requirements while including properties from our complete portfolio of specialty compounds – thereby providing a more sustainable, multi-solution product.”
The percentage of reclaimed material in the polymer component of PCC compounds can range from 1 to 100 percent, depending on the requirements of individual applications.
PCC compounds are available in nylon, polycarbonate and PET resins, as well as alloys based on these post-consumer feedstocks.
