Durability for Industrial and Agricultural Plastics
In a world evolving from a linear economy to a circular economy, plastic waste reduction is becoming a focus point. Longer durability and downgauging is a key requirement in agricultural and industrial films to reduce plastic waste streams.
Tenray® will provide long term durability in PE, PET, and PLA films.

Odor Control for (recycled) plastics, textiles and food packaging
Odor control is required in textile applications to capture intensive odors of packaged food products and to reduce foul aromas that can occur from manufactured recycled plastics.
Tenray® ultrafine zinc oxides capture odors originating from sulphur compounds and is effective against odor-causing gram+ and gram- bacteria.
