GCR Group

Granic® 2281 by GCR Group is a masterbatch based on high content of lamellar and ultrafine talc. Acts as a nucleating agent. It is 100% recyclable, environment friendly and just 27% dependent from crude oil. Exhibits excellent dispersion rate. Granic® 2281 is designed for extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam structures and compact sheets.

Granic® 1027 by GCR Group is a 100% recyclable, environment friendly calcium carbonate grade. Acts as a cavitating agent. Exhibits controlled particle size distribution and low density. Provides an optimized balance between low density & stiffness and high tensile strength. Offers pearl appearance and high opacity, avoiding shiny spots appearance. Granic® 1027 can be processed using extrusion. It is recommended for pearlized and metalized BOPP films. It is certified to have low carbon footprint which allows the reduction of end product environmental impact.

Granic® 282 by GCR Group is a reinforcing lamellar mineral masterbatch designed to improve mechanical and barrier properties. It is 100% recyclable, environment friendly and just 26% dependent from crude oil. Exhibits good transparency and excellent dispersion. Offers improved water vapor transmission rate and oxygen transmission rate. Improves stiffness, enhances dimensional stability and increases the modulus allowing to downgauge. It shows no migrations with any acid pH. It can be used in monolayer and coextrusion process. Granic® 282 is compatible with polyolefin, PET, PLA and other bio-resins. It is recommended for flexible & rigid food packaging applications on central layers up to 40% replacing virgin PE. It is food approved and can be used in contact with any food or liquid.

Granic® 1522 by GCR Group is a masterbatch based on ultrafine calcium carbonate to be compounded with Vistamaxx™ performance polymers. It is 100% recyclable, environment-friendly and just 20% dependent from crude oil. Offers good toughness, stiffness, elasticity and flexibility. Provides mineral loading, production reliability improvement and energy savings. Granic® 1522 is designed to provide an innovating solution for film and sheet applications.

Granic® 476 by GCR Group is a mineral masterbatch based on extra white and ultrafine treated calcium carbonate. It is 100% recyclable, environment-friendly and just 27% dependent from crude oil. Exhibits good whiteness and dispersion rate. Offers hydrophobicity, and soft & smooth touch. It reduces the use of titanium dioxide. Granic® 476 is recommended for breathable & non-breathable hygienic film applications.
