In the world of plastics and elastomers processing, the quality of the final product depends directly on the efficiency of the mould. For this reason, every manufacturing company requires technologically advanced products that not only optimise the production cycle but also safeguard the integrity of the equipment and the health of the operators.

Release agents and lubricants: the key to efficiency<\/b><\/h3>

\"Chem-Trend\"In the moulding industry, the difference between efficient production and problematic production often lies in the choice of release agent. Using professional solutions and specific lubricants for moving parts does not simply mean \u2018releasing the part\u2019; it ensures perfect demoulding<\/b>, preserving both the aesthetic integrity of the finished product and the mechanical integrity of the mould. <\/p>

As official partners of Chem-Trend<\/b>, we offer access to top-of-the-range formulations developed through cutting-edge chemical research.<\/p>

Why choose Chem-Trend technology?<\/h3>

  • Total Mould Protection<\/b>: Our release agents create an invisible yet extremely durable barrier that protects metal surfaces from premature wear, chemical attack and the build-up of deposits. This results in a significantly extended service life for the mould. <\/p><\/li>

  • Maximum Operational Efficiency<\/b>: By reducing the frequency of cleaning operations and machine downtime, Chem-Trend solutions optimise cycle times. Their high performance also means that only minimal quantities of product are required, thereby reducing operating costs. <\/p><\/li>

  • Sustainability and Safety<\/b>: We are committed to ensuring a healthier working environment. Chem-Trend formulations are designed to minimise toxicological impact, eliminate harmful vapours and comply with the strictest international environmental regulations. <\/p><\/li>

  • Lubrication of Moving Parts<\/b>: In addition to release agents, we supply specialised lubricants for extractors and carriages operating under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, preventing seizing and mechanical failure.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

    Tailored Solutions for Every Sector<\/h3>

    Whether it\u2019s plastic moulding, rubber moulding, polyurethane moulding or die-casting<\/b>, our experts are on hand to design the ideal release system for your specific production requirements.<\/p>

    Thermoplastics: Mac Plast High-Precision Masterbatches<\/h3>

    \"mac-plast-logo\"<\/p>

    The colouring of thermoplastic polymers requires absolute colour consistency to avoid variations in shade between production batches.<\/p>

    That is why we distribute masterbatches from Mac Plast<\/b>, a leading partner that guarantees:<\/p>

    • Colour Accuracy<\/b>: A wide range of standard colours and the option to develop bespoke colours to specific customer requirements.<\/p><\/li>

    • Optimal Dispersion<\/b>: Formulations designed to integrate seamlessly into the polymer matrix, preventing lumps or streaks during moulding or extrusion.<\/p><\/li>

    • Process Efficiency<\/b>: High pigment concentration allows for reduced dosages, optimising production costs without compromising coverage.<\/p><\/li>

    • Versatility<\/b>: Products suitable for the main thermoplastic resins (PP, PE, PS, ABS, etc.), with specific options for the packaging, engineering and medical sectors.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

      Polyurethanes: Specialists in Floid Systems<\/h3>

      \"logo-FLOID\"The polyurethane (PU) sector requires careful chemical management, both in terms of the aesthetic phase and plant maintenance.<\/p>

      As Floid <\/b>distributors, we offer a range of specialist products for every stage of the moulding process:<\/p>

      • High-Yield Colour Pastes<\/b>: Pigments finely dispersed in binders compatible with polyurethane systems (both polyester and polyether), ensuring vibrant colours that remain stable over time.<\/p><\/li>

      • Water-based In-Mould Coatings<\/b>: The cutting-edge solution for finishing parts directly during the moulding process. As they are water-based, they drastically reduce environmental impact and improve workshop safety by eliminating hazardous solvents. <\/p><\/li>

      • Injection Mould Nozzle Cleaners<\/b>: Specially formulated for the thorough cleaning of mixing and injection components. They effectively remove reaction residues, preventing blockages and ensuring the longevity of the injection mould nozzles. <\/p><\/li>

      • Release Agents and Additives<\/b>: Complementary solutions to facilitate the removal of parts and improve the surface finish of PU products.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

        Comprehensive solutions for injection moulding and extrusion:<\/span><\/p>

        • Release agents<\/b>: Sacrificial and semi-permanent (water-based or solvent-based)<\/span>.<\/li>
        • Maintenance<\/b>: Anti-corrosion protectants and specialised cleaning products for moulds and equipment.<\/li>
        • Deep Clean<\/b>: Cleaning granules for quick colour changes and the removal of impurities.<\/li>
        • Food Grade<\/b>: Products approved for use in the manufacture of food containers.<\/li><\/ul>

          Optimisation for every type of compound:<\/span><\/p>

          • Specialised products<\/b>: Semi-permanent release agents for long production runs and specific cleaning formulations for cleaning compression moulds.<\/li>
          • Protection<\/b>: Special lubricants for sliding parts subjected to high pressures.<\/li><\/ul>

            Maximum precision for complex geometries:<\/span><\/p>

            • Sliding agents<\/b>: Products designed to facilitate the flow of raw material into undercuts and threads.<\/li>
            • Release agents<\/b>: Formulations designed to withstand the high temperatures of rotational moulding cycles.<\/li><\/ul>

              Technology and colour for flexible, integral or rigid systems:<\/span><\/p>

              • Finish<\/b>: Colour pastes in plasticisers and polyols, water-based mould coatings.<\/li>
              • Maintenance<\/b>: Eco-friendly gel cleaners for cleaning moulds and mixing heads.<\/li>
              • Adhesives<\/b>: Single-component, water-based polyurethane adhesives.<\/li><\/ul>
