Borealis launches two new product ranges based on its unique Borecene technology - Borecene Compact™ and Paintable Borecene PE resins for rotomoulding
The rotational moulding industry is continuously seeking for polyethylene (PE) resins that are easy to handle and that have better flow properties. Borecene Compact™ is an improvement over Borealis’ existing ‘black’ Borecene™ powder and other powders which are ground down from pellets. It uses unique, Borealis patented technology which entirely bypasses the grinding stage. By eliminating this stage, Borecene Compact is dust-free which improves both product quality and the quality of the working environment. And as its name implies, one of Borecene Compact’s attributes is that it takes up less volume which makes it simpler to transport and to store.
