Features of Olefista™

  1. A wide range of product designs are possible.

By utilizing elastomer design technology, crosslinking resin design technology, and flame retardant compounding technology based on various resins, we have created a product with high flexibility, heat resistance, and scratch resistance.
We can design flame-retardant resin compounds.
We also offer non-halogen grades that do not produce toxic gases and have low smoke emissions, as well as highly flame-retardant grades with an oxygen index of 40 or higher.

  1. Compliance with standards and regulations

We offer a range of grades that meet various flame retardancy requirements, applications, and environmental regulations.

Flame retardancy standards (UL94, JIS C 3005, etc.)

Standards for electrical wire applications (JCS 4517, EN50620, etc.)

Environmental regulations (REACH, RoHS2, etc.)

  1. Flame retardancy and functional properties

In addition to flame retardancy, our proprietary compounding technology allows us to impart various functionalities.

High heat resistance, flexibility, chemical resistance, oil resistance, scratch resistance, insulation, low smoke emission, etc.

Flame retardants can be selected from halogen-based or non-halogen-based options.

  1. Flame-retardant masterbatch

We can also provide flame-retardant masterbatches. Simply add them to your resin to impart flame retardancy.
