HIPS regrind
Post-industrial HIPS regrind, not household waste
HIPS, high-impact polystyrene, is the plastic of yogurt and dessert cups. When those cups are made, the factory cuts them out of a sheet and keeps the skeleton and the rejected cups as production scrap. That scrap is our raw material.
This scrap never reaches the consumer. We sort it by colour, grind it and pack it in big bags. You get one polymer with the same melt behaviour from one load to the next.
HIPS is the material we know best. It is the core of our business.
