Controlled Migration Thermoplastic Elastomers for Food Contact & Packaging Applications
In-depth investigations into the migration behavior of TPE with different raw material compositions have enabled us to develop application-specific compounds for food packaging. These new TPE developments maximize the application and design possibilities for component design. Risk minimization and time savings through accurate calculation of migration behavior offer optimization potential.
These specially developed materials offer you the following advantages:
- Very low migration potential – depending on the series, also suitable for fatty food contact
- Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011
- US FDA CFR 21 formulation compliance
- California Proposition 65
- GB 4806-2016
- REACH, RoHs
- Free of phthalates, bisphenol A, and latex
- Free of heavy metals
Recyclable - Support and advice on global migration issues
- EN71-3
- Processing in multi-component injection molding
- Comprehensive service, including regulatory issues
- High-quality surface finish

- Soft touch elements
- Anti-slip elements
Featured Product: FC/CM2 Series | THERMOLAST® K
Your advantages
- Adhesion to polyolefin materials
- Soft, velvety feel
FC/CM3/AD1 Series |
THERMOLAST® K
The FC/CM3/AD1 series is your material solution for all food contact applications. It has an extremely low migration potential and is characterized by its adhesion to polar thermoplastics such as Tritan, SAN, PC, PET, PETG and ABS. The materials can be colored in many different ways.
Featured Product: FC/CM3/AD1 Series | THERMOLAST® K
Typical applications
- Food packaging
- Cosmetic applications
- Hoses
- Conveyor belts
- Coffee machines
- Household appliances
Featured Product: FC/CM3/AD1 Series | THERMOLAST® K
Your advantages
- Adhesion to polar thermoplastics such as Tritan, SAN, PC, PET, PETG, and ABS
- Extremely low migration and extraction levels
- Optimized mechanical properties (tensile strength, tear resistance)
The challenge lies in combining processability in injection molding with the very low migration potential that is essential for fatty food applications. At the same time, the materials must be recyclable.
