APT and Mitsui Chemicals Europe Enter Into New Distribution Agreement For Milastomer

March 30, 2011 - PRLog -- Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui's Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer under the Milastomer brand.

As part of the Mitsui Chemicals Group, Mitsui Chemicals Europe serves the European, Middle East and African markets which are the sectors and markets targeted by APT. Its headquarters are in Dusseldorf which is home to the biggest Japanese community in Europe.

“Mitsui's Milastomer is a first class Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT's Managing Director. “We are very pleased with this new agreement which builds on our existing partnership with Mitsui.”

Milastomer, which is particularly suited for the automotive industry where it is used for interior trims including dash boards, doors and headliners, is based on Mitsui’s years of expertise and experience in plastics and synthetic rubber manufacturing. Unlike traditional rubber,  Milastomer does not need compounding or vulcanization by the end user and every grade of Milastomer can be molded or extruded similar to polyethylene and polypropylene. Also like PVC, Milastomer has excellent moldability when processed on calendering machines.
