Add to the low-temperature impact strength and service life of your refrigerators with a wide selection of polypropylene homopolymers, impact copolymers and Exxtral™ performance polyolefins including colorable, talc-, calcium carbonate- and glass-filled materials.

Used around the world by refrigerator manufacturers, our polypropylene provides:

  • Good performance at low use temperatures, enabled by a broad selection of impact copolymers and mineral-enhanced compounds
  • Excellent strength and stability at room temperatures and above, enabled by numerous homopolymers and mineral-enhanced compounds
  • Range of melt flow rates to enable consistent parts manufacturing and maximum productivity in varying parts sizes and complexities
  • Array of stiffness – impact combinations that offer economic replacement alternatives for metal and other engineered polymer resins
  • Outstanding parts consolidation with Santoprene™ TPVs for improved sealing, durability and high-end aesthetics
