Product Development

With decades of experience in every aspect of thermoplastic product design, development and production, we can help you turn your idea into a viable product. Whether that means finding the right formulation for your product’s technical requirements, or developing a new compound to improve performance, we can help.

We have helped product developers formulate:

a laminate that offers a Corian® look at a Formica® price
roofing that offers the look and durability of slate at a fraction of the weight and price
a material with the weight, pliability and photo/radio opacity of lead sheeting with none of its toxicity

Our capabilities include formulation development for:

Strength
Stiffness
Impact resistance
Heat resistance
UV/Thermal stability
Filler reinforcement
Chemical resistance

Color
Rheology
Flame control
CLTE and shrinkage
Anti-microbial
Density
X Ray opacity

And we’ve developed unique materials for:

Plastics with metal characteristics
Unique fillers and reinforcements
Density control
Cut resistance
Melting characteristics for lost core molding
Co-extruded plastic laminate
Roofing shingles with a slate look
Non-toxic lead substances
Disposable plastic bake ware
