Case Studies

Approached to Manufacture New Compound

Chase Plastics was approached to manufacture a compound suitable for inclusion in a polythene film product which had to meet a recognised industry standard. Using their blending technology, Chase worked closely with the customer to produce two separate compounds both of which now successfully form standard ingredients in the customer's product, conforming consistently with the required specification.

100% UK  Post Consumer Recycled Polymer

Chase Plastics was approached to supply a PCR polythene compound made from 100% UK packaging waste in order to satisfy a customer's environmental product specification. Chase Plastics worked with the customer to develop a compound, which consistently met specification and performed to the same standard as the customer's usual in-house reclaim.

Consistency and Quality

Chase Plastics was asked to compound a customer's in-house regrind to remove all impurities and inconsistencies. Chase subsequently achieved a consistency and quality of product that enabled the customer to re-use the pelletised compound 100% back into primary product.

Providing an alternative to Exporting Waste

A large retailer wanted a solution for their packaging waste to avoid their material being exported for offshore reprocessing. Chase Plastics worked with the retailer and their supply chain to improve the preparation of their packaging waste plastic for reprocessing so that it could be reprocessed by Chase here in the UK.
