RTP Company: The Global Leader in Specialty Compounding

Flame Retardant Plastic Compounds

• RoHS & HES compliant halogen-free grades
• UL Recognized compounds and quick in-house testing

Purchasing a flame retardant thermoplastic compound from RTP Company ensures consistent quality and performance. Our specialty compounds can combine flame retardance with other important properties such as wear resistance, conductivity, structural reinforcement, or color to meet your application needs.

The technology of flame retardant thermoplastics is complex. While some resins are inherently flame resistant, others need special additives to withstand exposure to smoke and flames. During the development process, our engineers consider more than just resin and flammability ratings. Part size, molding shear, flow, thermal stress, and end use environment are other factors that influence your formulation.

We work closely with Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., to certify a growing list of custom formulations that pass UL 94 test parameters. For our global customers, we also offer a family of halogen-free flame retardant compounds that facilitate compliance for your application with eco-labels such as: the German Blue Angel, Nordic White Swan, and the EU Eco-Label.
