Ultra Purge™
Purging compounds for plastics processing machinery
Ultra Purge™ is a professional purging compound designed for cleaning injection moulding machines, extruders and other polymer processing equipment. It helps remove residual material, supports colour and material changes and reduces the time required for cleaning and restarting production.
Manufacturer
Chem-Trend
- Ultra Purge™ covers mechanical, chemical and chemical-mechanical grades — selected by machine type, process (injection, extrusion, blow moulding) and operating temperature up to about 420 °C.
- The line offers general-purpose grades, hot-runner grades, film and profile extrusion grades, multi-colour machine grades and dedicated food-contact and medical variants.
- Ultra Purge™ helps cut scrap and machine downtime — a real impact on OEE and unit cost.
