On the face, red plastic bags with the "INTERNATIONAL BIOHAZARD" emblem and the phrase "CAUTION MEDICAL WASTE" are used.

Medical grade Lennite UHMWPE is produced from premium resins im accordance with ASTM specification F648 and International Standard ISO 5834-1 for surgical implants. Westlake Plastics' proprietary manufacturing processes and stringent quality control permit a well consolidated and consistent fabricated form. Recommended sterilization techniques include EtO gas, cold sterilization, and limited gamma irradiation. Often used for total hip and knee joint prosthesis, various other surgical implants and medical devices.

Nylon allows to obtain products with high resistance at high temperatures, low permeability, high chemical resistance.

The need to obtain high degrees of dispersion and homogenization of components, resins, pigments, additives is increasing both in the production of masterbatches and compounds. The technological evolution of the systems and the use of polymers in powder with controlled granulometry can guarantee these results. The series of products for this sector includes a large number of polymers of both the “commodities” and “special” types.

With polypropylene it’s possible to obtain very rigid products resistant to high temperatures. The product also has a low dimensional shrinkage.

New family of products based on respect for the environment and on the circular economy.

This family of products has been specially developed to obtain particular properties. These products are developed for use in specific applications.

Linear polyethylene comonomer butene, suitable for several applications, easy to mould. Good mechanical properties and good mouldability.

Linear polyethylene comonomer hexene, allows to obtain greater mechanical strength and superior resistance to chemical agents.

The strengths are the wide range of colors and products available which fully satisfy the increasingly specific needs that the market requires. A wellequipped internal laboratory and the collaboration with accredited external laboratories allow us to cooperate with our customers to face market challenges and meet the demands of end consumers.

The production of powders is one of the most important sectors because the technology that uses polymer powders has an extraordinary development potential. Poliplast S.p.a. is able to produce powders starting from a variety of thermoplastic resins for applications ranging from rotational moulding to the production of resins for masterbatches and compounds.

For drinking water applications

Polyvinylchloride (PVC), is a theermoplastic polymer. It is a vinyl polymer constructed of repeating vinyl groups (ethenyls) having one of their hydrogens replaced with a chloride group. Polyvinylchloride (PVC) is the third most widely produced plastic after polyethylene and polypropylene. PVC is widely used in construction because it is cheap, durable, and easy to assemble. PVC production is expected to exceed 40 million tons by 2016. PVC intrinsic properties make it suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is biologically and chemically resistant, making it the plastic of choice for most household sewerage pipes and other pipe applications where corrosion would limit the use of metal.With the addition of impact modifiers and stabilizers, it becomes a popular material for window and door frames. By adding plasticizers, it can become flexible enough to be used in cabling applications as a wire insulator. It is also used to make vinyl records.

HDPE – high density polyethylene is defined by a density of greater or equal to 0.941 g/cm3. HDPE has a low degree of branching and thus stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength. HDPE can be produced by chromium/silica catalysts, ziegler-natta catalysts or metallocene catalysts. The lack of branching is ensured by an appropriate choice of catalyst and reaction conditions. HDPE is used in products and packaging such as milk jugs, detergent bottles, margarine tubs, garbage containers and water pipes. High-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polyethylene high-density (PEHD) is a polyethylene thermoplastic made from petroleum. It takes 1.75 kilograms of petroleum (in terms of energy and raw materials) to make one kilogram of HDPE. HDPE is commonly recycled, and has the number “2” as its recycling symbol.

Polystyrene (PS) is an aromatic polymer, made from the aromatic monomer styrene, a liquid hydrocarbon that is commercially manufactured from petroleum by the chemical industry. Polystyrene is one of the most widely used kinds of plastic. Polystyrene is a thermoplastic substance, which is in solid (glassy) state at room temperature, but flows if heated above its glass transition temperature and becomes solid again when cooled. Pure solid polystyrene is a colorless, hard plastic with limited flexibility. It can be cast into molds with fine detail. Polystyrene (PS) can be transparent or can be made to take on various colors. The chemical makeup of polystyrene is a long chain hydrocarbon with every other carbon connected to a phenyl group.
