  • (1888PressRelease) September 26, 2019 - Polytechs, a masterbatch & compounder company, has announced significant changes to their product line, & a new focus on speciality products. Their new lines will launch exclusively at K (https://www.k-online.com/) 2019 (Hall 5 / D04-01).

    Polytechs: investing for the future
    In 2018, Polytechs' turnover reached €35million & the company invested €7.5 million in a new production machine, to complement their 'reactive extrusion' range. Polytechs has restructured their product range, & the transformation of communications. The company has accelerated their digital transformation, with changes to their brand strategy & product innovation.

    Polytechs has now introduced a new 3-pillar business model incorporating:
    • Masterbatches dedicated to polyolefins surface modification
    • Polymer production & processing industry productivity solutions
    • A range dedicated to 3D printing

    New products for international markets
    The new business model includes an international approach, which is exploited through Polytechs' distribution network of over 30 global partners covering Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and the Americas. The new '3 pillar' structure covers new brands & products:

    • Masterbatches dedicated to the surface modification of polyolefins:
    Polytechs flagship brand, the Cling Masterbatch PW, range has increased.

    Polytechs has introduced the PW S, which offers a real increase to 'clinginess' and 'noise' for agricultural silage films. Polytechs is also developing a complete range of agents which extend the shelf life of foods wrapped in monolayer polyethylene film.

    • Productivity solutions for the polymer manufacturing and processing industry:
    Polytechs is implementing 2 new solutions to boost productivity: Flow Xpress & Clean Xpress. Flow Xpress covers 2 different technologies; the first is a viscosity modifier for PP (polypropylene), & the second is a combination of various process assistance products which reduce friction & pressure exerted on materials in the extruder. Clean Xpress is a result of Polytechs' 20 years' experience in the field which enables them to provide purge compounds with strong technical support.

    • A comprehensive range dedicated to 3D printing (in partnership with Francofil):
    Polytechs manufactures Olesteel 3D, a custom polyolefin-based compound, with strong mechanical properties & customisable functions. The filament form of this compound is produced by Normandy start-up, Francofil. With their combined skillset & expertise, the 2 companies have developed a printable solution to produce tools for OEM maintenance and production lines.

    Polytechs will be exhibiting at the K 2019 Trade Fair, Hall 5 / D04-01, in Düsseldorf from 16th to 24th October 2019.
