Gravi-Tech™ REC Recycled Formulations
Sustainable and Density Modified
Gravi-Tech™ REC recycled formulations are density modified engineered polymers based on recycled resin and/or filler from post-industrial recycled (PIR) and/or post-consumer recycled (PCR) sources, including ocean bound plastic waste. They offer a more sustainable alternative to density modified grades based on prime/virgin polymers.
These polymer formulations have been developed to achieve equivalent performance to prime density modified solutions with added sustainability benefits, such as reducing waste and supporting the circular economy, and reducing product carbon footprint.
They allow complex designs without expensive tooling and performance characteristics (density, corrosion and chemical resistance, mechanical performance) and can be customized depending on application need.
Gravi-Tech REC recycled grades enable visual surface effects and aesthetics including metallic finish, cool touch and color variation, suitable for applications in packaging and consumer goods such as cosmetic caps and closures, perfume caps, spirit bottle caps and luxury boxes.
Recycle Solutions
Impact
- Customized density offering a wide range of specific gravities (1.5 - 11 gm/cm³)
- Based on recycled resin and/or filler from post-industrial recycled (PIR) and/or post-consumer recycled (PCR) sources, including ocean bound plastic waste
- Broad modulus range, from very flexible to very rigid grades
- Corrosion resistance that withstands oxidization for long-term use and benefit
- Chemical resistance can be adapted depending on base resin as required
- Provides visual surface effects, aesthetics and cool touch
- Design flexibility and processing ease
