Volume plastics

Volume plastics are widely-used, cost-efficient materials.

This group includes thermoplastics, such as PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) and PS (polystyrene). Typically, basic plastics are used in environments where temperatures remain below 100°C.

Read more about specific volume plastics below.

Our product range includes basic plastics as sheets, bars and pipes, and as special products in some materials.
