Efficiency

Inefficient automotive parts molders don’t stay around long in this type of industry.  In such a competitive market, every plant must continually find ways to stay as efficient as possible.  And one of the biggest challenges to creating a lean plant is color changes. Lots of color changes mean that purging time and scrap costs can start to add up to tens – even hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of waste each year. To combat this, Purgex grades are uniquely designed to reduce the total time it takes to change colors as well as material waste each change entails. A small amount of Purgex purging compounds for automotive equipment can go a long way towards overall cost savings.

Versatility

Purgex is engineered to keep up with an ever-expanding world of resins. That means Purgex is designed to work efficiently on a broad range of resins from commodities such as polypropylene and polyethylene, to specialty resins like Nylon and polycarbonate. Purgex eliminates the need to have a specific purging compound on hand for each separate resin you mold. We believe that although your material might have to change- your purging compound shouldn’t.
