Driven by chemistry and performance
At Perstorp, we develop additives and functional materials that help customers meet technical and regulatory requirements while delivering safe and effective performance.
Broad range of polyol building blocks from the global market leader
Our specialty polyol and acid building blocks enable multifunctional additives with high efficiency for demanding applications, whether as antioxidants, UV stabilizers, processing aids, or other functional solutions. Available in Pro-Environment grades, they can support customers seeking products with renewable or recycled raw material content and documented product carbon footprint information. We help customers develop new solutions through technical expertise and application capabilities from molecule to end product.Building blocks
Our range of polymer additives includes Holtac™, which functions as a lead-free heat stabilizer component in Ca/Zn stabilizer systems, Charmor™, a component for non-halogen intumescent systems for plastics, and our specialty amorphous copolyester Akestra™, which is compatible with PET and glycol-modified polyesters.
Holtac™ enables the manufacture of lead-free PVC heat stabilizers while maintaining performance and supporting long-term color stability in PVC applications. As a fully integrated producer of co-stabilizing polyols, Perstorp provides reliable supply, consistent product quality, and technical support.
Charmor™ is used in non-halogen flame-retardant (intumescent) systems for plastics. Intumescent technology based on Charmor™ is compliant with applicable regulatory requirements and helps maintain mechanical properties without significantly increasing weight. Charmor™-based systems provide an alternative to conventional flame-retardant technologies in polymer applications. Through Charmor™, Perstorp has established a strong position in the intumescent systems market for coatings. Charmor™ products are available in micronized and supermicronized grades for consistency and performance.
