Casacide™ are used extensively in a wide range of anti‐microbial, disinfectant and detergent applications marketed outside of the European Union. The chloroxylenol grades are not supported, at present, under BPR (EU Regulation 528/2012) and so are not permitted, currently, for use as components of biocidal formulations for marketing within the European Union.

"Our additives and ingredients enhance manufacturing processes and the performance of products.
Thomas Swan has developed a range of viscosity-reduction additives for the rubber processing and polymer industries, providing time, energy, cost and environmental benefits. Pepton® chemical peptisers catalyze the mastication of rubber, providing time, energy, cost and environmental benefits.

The dibenzamido diphenyl disulphide (DBD) chemistry used to produce the active ingredient within Pepton® is widely considered by the rubber processing industry to be more environmentally acceptable than traditional pentachloro thiophenol based peptisers. Thomas Swan’s DBD is the only fully REACH registered chemical peptiser.

A range of formulated Pepton® products is available, each having different concentrations of the active ingredient combined with a range of complementary proprietary additives that enhance peptising performance."
