Recycled polymer compounds
Compounds made from post-consumer recycled (PCR) feedstock, covering general-purpose, flame-retardant and glass-fiber-reinforced needs. The R30, R50, R65 or R75 at the end of a grade code gives its post-consumer recycled content (%) by compound mass, as stated in the TDS and traceability documents.
