Nexam Chemical sign supply agreement with Diab

Nexam Chemical has signed a supply agreement with the Swedish composite company Diab regarding NEXAMITE®-technology for the production of PET-foam. Deliveries in the form of highly concentrated masterbatch is expected to start during the first half of 2017.

The growing market for environmentally friendly products based on PET is an important application area for Nexam Chemical. We look forward to the continued and enhanced cooperation with Diab”, says Nexam Chemicals CEO, Anders Spetz. In December 2015, Nexam Chemical announced that a collaboration agreement had been signed with Diab regarding development of a unique high performance PET -foam containing Nexam Chemicals NEXAMITE®-technology.

The outcome of the joint development is a product based on NEXAMITE®, “packaged” in a masterbatch, which will be delivered to Diab. Delivering in the form of masterbatch simplifies the mixing process and ensures a homogenous product quality when NEXAMITE® is added in Diabs production equipment. “We are very satisfied within Diab with our joint development together with Nexam Chemical. It has delivered such positive results in our high performance foam, that we are ready to take the next step in the form of a commercial product and this supply agreement.
