Solutions for the protection of polymers from UV rays
UV absorbers are additives designed to protect plastic materials from degradation caused by exposure to ultraviolet rays. They limit yellowing, loss of strength, and surface alterations, preserving the aesthetic and mechanical properties of products over time.
Why use UV absorbers
Polymers exposed to sunlight or artificial UV sources can degrade rapidly, compromising their durability and functionality.
UV absorbers help:
reduce yellowing and color loss
maintain mechanical properties
extend the useful life of the products
improve weather resistance
support long-lasting outdoor applications
Available technologies
We have UV absorbers suitable for different formulation needs and production processes.
