RECYCLING ADDITIVES

Elevating recycled polypropylene performance

DESIGN CIRCULAR. DELIVER QUALITY.

Creating circular plastic products isn't easy. That's why Milliken brings deep expertise in virgin and recycled polypropylene (PP)—and a portfolio of additive solutions that boost recycled content without sacrificing quality. From material selection to circular design, we partner with you to unlock what's possible.

DeltaMax®

With DeltaMax® Performance Modifiers, you can maximize the physical properties and processability of polypropylene (PP) for injection molding applications. DeltaMax® enables converters to enhance the impact and melt flow of virgin and recycled PP resins, creating resins with higher levels of recycled content that match or exceed the performance levels of virgin PP resins.
