Plastics and elastomers for Recycling

ADVANCENE™ EM-4925-AAH by The Egyptian Ethylene and Derivatives Company (ETHYDCO) is a high density polyethylene (HDPE) grade. It is made to be used in either intermittent or continuous blow molding machines to make containers up to 30 liters in volume.

• It offers outstanding environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR), high impact strength and good extrusion characteristics.
• It is suitable for processing by extrusion into profiles or sheets, as well as blow molded into other thin-walled parts and houseware products. It can be recycled utilizing modern shredding and cleaning techniques.
• It is also a versatile blow molding resin for producing high-speed blow molded containers for packaging domestic industrial chemicals (e.g., detergent, bleach, fabric softeners), toiletries and cosmetics (e.g., shampoos, creams, lotions, etc.), and health and medical assistance.
• ADVANCENE™ EM-4925-AAH complies with REACH.

FDM HIPS by Stratasys is a high-impact thermoplastic polystyrene in a 3D printing filament form. It possesses similar mechanical properties to ABS, but offers much higher impact resistance and durability. It is a low-cost option for general low-requirement 3D printing applications.

• It allows easy formability which makes it easily reusable and recyclable, a beneficial feature for reducing the environmental impact of post-printed material.
• It is suitable for fast prototyping applications where multiple iterations are desired to refine design concepts.
• FDM HIPS is used in jigs, fixtures, assembly aids, and inspection tools not subjected to high loading.

Luban EP2340L by Orpic is a BSE/TSE-, GMO- & PFAS-free, polypropylene impact copolymer. It is manufactured using the Spheripol Technology. It possesses medium flow and improved mechanical properties balance. It is suitable for processing by injection molding.

• It exhibits high stiffness and outstanding impact strength at low temperatures which is 35% higher than conventional grades.
• Luban EP2340L is used in packaging, automotive, consumer goods industries, luggage, furniture, paint pails, buckets, containers, crates, batteries and large toys.
• It is suitable for recycling using modern methods of shredding and cleaning.

Luban EP2348R by Orpic is a PFAS-, TSE/BSE- & GMO-free, nucleated polypropylene impact copolymer with an antistatic agent. It is manufactured using the Spheripol Technology. It offers low creep, good dimensional consistency & excellent warpage control.

• It exhibits an excellent stiffness & impact balance combined with a medium flow.
• Luban EP2348R is recommended for thin-walled injection molded (TWIM) items, toys, furniture, sports, leisure, houseware, pails and containers.
• It is suitable for recycling using modern methods of cleaning & shredding.

Luban EP2348S by Orpic is a PFAS-, BSE/TSE- and GMO-free, nucleated polypropylene impact copolymer with an antistatic agent. It is manufactured using the Spheripol Technology. It offers an excellent stiffness & impact balance combined with a high flow.

• It exhibits low creep, good dimensional consistency and excellent warpage control.
• Luban EP2348S is recommended for large home appliances case & cover, washing machine tub, housewares, furniture, automotive parts, thin-walled packaging, pails and base resin for compounding.
• It is suitable for processing by injection molding and for recycling using modern methods of cleaning & shredding.

Luban EP2340P by Orpic is a BSE/TSE-, GMO- & PFAS-free, nucleated polypropylene impact copolymer. It is suitable for processing by injection molding. It exhibits a high stiffness in combination with a good impact balance.

• It is manufactured using the Spheripol Technology.
• It is also suitable for recycling using modern methods of shredding and cleaning.
• Luban EP2340P is recommended for luggage, automotive battery cases, houseware items, pails, containers, caps and closures.

ECOTRIA® CR by SK Chemicals is chemically recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste. They uses up to 99 percent chemically recycled plastics. It exhibits lower carbon footprint than their fossil-based counterparts, with no compromise on properties or quality.

• Offers excellent transparency and processability.
• Complies with regulations of REACH.
• Due to their excellent physical, chemical, and optical properties, they are ideally suited as environmentally friendly and sustainable drop-in solution for fossil-based plastics.
• ECOTRIA® CR is suitable for food packaging industries.
• Enables HTR (hard-to-recycle) plastic waste.

Styropor® Ccycled™ by BASF is an expandable polystyrene (EPS) based on chemical recycling of plastic waste. It offers the same properties as virgin material whilst contributing to reduce the consumption of fossil raw materials. Due to its production process, it has an extra edge when it comes to sustainability.

• It lowers the carbon footprint.
• It offers outstanding impact absorption and high compressive strength.
• Styropor® Ccycled™ is used in packaging applications.
