These include individual additives and synergistic blends designed to enhance product performance and consistency. Reported benefits include odour reduction, melt flow index retention, colour and yellowing index retention, and gel reduction. “As part of a major initiative to expand our portfolio, we are working closely with our customers to help them unlock the full potential of recycled plastics,” says Zachary Hoffman, Business Development Lead Europe, Middle East & Africa for Kisuma. “Beyond a diversified suite of magnesium-based additives already available for this market, we are actively developing the next generation of these unique products, including tailor made solutions with functionalities engineered to boost the performance, efficiency and sustainability of recycled plastics or retain virgin-like properties. By enhancing colour, reducing odour, improving melt flow and minimising gels, we can achieve consistent, high-quality outcomes together and accelerate the shift towards a more sustainable plastics value chain.” Kisuma’s magnesium-based additives for recycled plastics are designed to align with the European Union’s ambitious directives for increasing the recycled content in many industries, such as packaging (PPWR), automotive (ELV), and building & construction. With a focus on carbon neutrality and supported by the non-toxic HSE profile of these products, the company aims to help customers reduce their carbon footprint and phase out additives that risk future regulation worldwide. Visitors to K show 2025 can explore Kisuma’s magnesium-based additive solutions at the company’s booth H31 in Hall 8B. www.kisuma.com MATERIALS Kisuma Chemicals presents a suite of magnesium-based additive solutions for compounders and converters of recycled plastics.
