Franplast Fatty food USP Cl. VI

Franplast Fatty food USP Cl. VI is the new crystal clear TPE compound, based on SEBS, suitable for contact with fatty food in accordance with the European Regulations. It is completely compliant with 10/2011/EU and also 1907/2006/CE, ROHS, RAEE, WEEE, ELV, EN71/3. This innovative compound is characterized by an extremely low migration level, when in contact with simulant D2 (olive oil). Chemiton for fatty food can be processed with conventional plastic processing technology such as injection molding and extrusion. Other important features are the extremely high resistance to alcohols and the sterilization by steam-autoclave.
