Nexam Chemical, a leading innovator in high-performance plastic additives, proudly announces significant international commercial traction for its Intrinsic Viscosity (IV) enhancers in recycled PET (rPET) sheets. This breakthrough has attracted significant interest and initial orders from key markets such as Pakistan, the USA, Australia, Mexico, and various regions in South America.

As global sustainability efforts intensify, the demand for recycled materials is rapidly increasing. Nexam Chemical’s advanced IV enhancers improve intrinsic viscosity (IV), a crucial process parameter, significantly enhancing the performance and quality of rPET sheets. These additives ensure that rPET sheets exhibit superior mechanical properties, durability, and clarity, making them suitable for a wide range of applications from packaging to industrial use, thus meeting the stringent requirements of diverse industries.

Key markets around the world are recognizing the value of Nexam Chemical’s IV enhancers for recycled PET (rPET) sheets. In Pakistan, the burgeoning packaging industry has shown significant interest, acknowledging the potential of these enhancers to improve the quality and performance of locally produced rPET sheets. This has led to a new local partner agreement. In the USA, Nexam’s IV enhancers are being utilized specifically for PET foamed sheets, which replace polystyrene foam in food packaging, addressing the increasing consumer demand for sustainable solutions. Australia’s strong commitment to sustainability has companies looking to Nexam’s IV enhancers to boost the quality of recycled materials and support national recycling targets, with first commercial-scale orders expected soon. In Mexico and South America, the rapidly expanding recycling sector is seeking advanced solutions to upgrade their rPET sheets to meet international standards. A channel sales agreement covering these regions is expected to generate increasing commercial volumes.
