Polytives GmbH is launching a partnership with the established Canadian distributor Simcoe Plastics Ltd., enabling the young company to systematically expand its international presence: Simcoe Plastics will take over the distribution of Polytives additives in Canada with immediate effect. A joint expansion of sales activities to other regions in North America is planned.
The collaboration combines pioneering technology from Germany with Simcoe Plastics' 46 years of market expertise. While Polytives provides solutions for more efficient plastics processing with its additives, the consulting and sales company assumes the role of central contact partner and ensures expert support directly on site. This gives Canadian plastics processors direct access to the high-performance additives from the Thuringian company.
The framework conditions are ideal: Canada is regarded as an important future market for German industry. The country is also currently driving forward the development of recycling capacities for critical raw materials and plastics, among other things. This results in a growing demand for technologically sophisticated solutions, which Polytives addresses with its expertise.
"Canada is a key strategic market for us that is actively driving innovation and sustainability," explains Viktoria Rothleitner, Managing Director at Polytives. "We are relying on our partner's many years of experience to open up this important market for us."
"Our customers in North America are increasingly looking for ways to make their production more sustainable without compromising on quality," says Kurt Stahle, President of Simcoe Plastics Ltd. "With Polytives' innovative additives, we are providing them with high-quality materials for more efficient and resource-saving processing."
Polytives' additives reduce the CO2 footprint in production, for example by enabling lower processing temperatures and thus significantly saving energy. The migration-stable, PFAS- and silicone-free additives are suitable for food contact and are also compatible with all common polymers - including recycled and bioplastics.
The partnership brings together two companies that see sustainability as an integral part of their corporate strategy and are now working together to translate this into measurable solutions for the North American plastics industry.
