SI Group, a global developer and manufacturer of performance additives, process solutions, pharmaceuticals, and chemical intermediates, will be introducing its new additives brand for plastics recycling at the K 2022 exhibition.
The company’s newest brand will encompass a comprehensive platform of innovative additive solutions designed to accelerate the transition to a more circular economy and lead to a more sustainable plastics industry. The first solutions to be introduced under the new brand name will be stabilisers for recycled polyolefins and PET that are specifically designed to allow customers to use more recycled materials without compromising performance in the end application. “We’re thrilled to deliver solutions that enable our customers and the industry to move towards a truly circular economy. Our new solutions upgrade the performance of recycled plastics so they can be used in more demanding applications again and again,” said Irfaan Foster, market development director at SI Group.
In addition to revealing the new brand, SI Group will be presenting its expanded portfolio and latest sustainability developments at K 2022. Key product updates to be showcased include a new masterbatch grade of WESTON 705 liquid antioxidant and ULTRANOX LC stabilisers. Since the last K show in 2019, the company has increased its focus on sustainability. “While sustainability has been critical to our success for a long time, we recently modified our corporate mission statement to include sustainability, as we recognise its key role in our journey to becoming the global additives powerhouse,” said Joey Gullion, chief commercial officer at SI Group. “Our presence and activities at K 2022 will reflect our commitment to a more circular plastics industry.”
