At our site in Elsteraue, Germany, we have years of experience with the micronization of waxes. A specifically designed technology produces spherical micronized wax particles that provide modified properties compared to conventionally milled waxes.

Due to the multi-purpose characteristics of our plant and the access to a large range of reactions we are able to offer custom designed products or to toll manufacture them.

Approximately 20 % of our worldwide employees are working in the fields of development and application technology. Through constant investment in these fields we want to strengthen our competence so that we can offer high-quality additives to our customers for their current products and future developments.
