Bringing Clarity to Polypropylene

Millad NX 8000 ECO clarifier is the latest addition to our market-leading Millad NX 8000 product line, which is used to produce the durable, fully transparent, highly recyclable material known as NX UltraClear™ PP. Millad NX 8000 ECO helps manufacturers use an average of 10% less energy by increasing production rates and is compatible with plastics packaging recycling in the U.S. and Europe, a fact certified by UL (Underwriters Laboratories). The U.S.-based Association of Plastic Recyclers also recognizes the ECO grade for its compatibility with plastic packaging recycling. Additionally, the technology is fully compatible with PP recycling processes in Europe and poses no recyclability issues, according to RecyClass, across-industry initiative that works to advance plastic packaging recyclability on the continent. 

This ground-breaking clarifying agent includes other performance benefits as it addresses migration concerns, making it suitable for food contact plastics and in retail given the continuing rapid shift to LED lighting, a trend that impacts how products look to customers. Millad® NX® 8000 ECO maintains a consistent, fresh appearance in all retail lighting, regardless of the presence of UV light from the light source.
