At a time when innovation is driving competitiveness, industries are looking for more effective solutions to improve their products and processes. Among the many options available, pre-formulated performance additives are emerging as particularly promising. These products are designed to offer specific properties to industrial materials and formulations. They offer considerable advantages in terms of cost, performance and durability. So why choose pre-formulated performance additives for your industry? Here’s how.
Optimize the performance of your materials
Preformulated performance additives are specifically designed to improve the properties of materials throughout their life cycle. Acting as catalysts, these additives enhance certain key characteristics such as resistance to climatic conditions, thermal stability, mechanical durability or resistance to chemicals. Industries that manufacture plastics, rubbers, paints, coatings or composites are therefore well advised to turn to these additives. By opting for pre-formulated additives, they can easily incorporate them into their formulations without having to invest in complex formulation or development processes.
Reduce your production costs with pre-formulated performance additives
One of the main advantages of pre-formulated additives is their ability to reduce production costs: a crucial issue for all industries. What’s more, they are developed to be easy to apply to existing production lines without requiring any modifications. Ready-to-use formulations, such as Carbon Waters’ Graph’Up range, help to save time and avoid the errors associated with handling multiple ingredients and dosages. What’s more, their efficiency allows you to adjust the quantity of additives, thereby reducing raw material and energy costs.
Improve the quality of your products
Another major advantage of pre-formulated performance additives is their consistent quality. Unlike customised solutions – which sometimes lead to variations in final properties depending on formulation methods – pre-formulated additives are produced according to rigorous and reproducible criteria. This ensures consistent quality in the final products. As a result, they meet the stringent requirements of many industries, such as the automotive, construction and aerospace industries, where performance and safety are non-negotiable criteria.
Reduce your environmental footprint with pre-formulated performance additives
The environmental footprint of industrial production is a major and growing challenge worldwide. Thanks to innovative, sustainable technologies and renewable raw materials, pre-formulated performance additives help to reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing processes. Like the graphene-based additives in the Graph’Up range, these products are designed to minimise the use of resources, optimize material performance and extend product life. For example, in the paint industry, certain pre-formulated additives improve durability and resistance, reducing maintenance or the need for multiple coats.
Opt for ease of use and flexibility
One of the advantages of pre-formulated additives is their ease of use. Whereas standard additives sometimes need to be fine-tuned according to customer criteria, pre-formulated additives are suitable for a variety of industrial applications. As a result, industries save time in the development phase and benefit from flexibility in adapting their products to market needs.
Carbon Waters, with its ready-to-use formulations, offers a technology that simplifies the integration of its graphene-based additives into complex formulations, guaranteeing optimum, long-lasting performance.
Stay compliant with standards and regulations
Regulatory requirements are becoming increasingly stringent in many industrial sectors. The integration of pre-formulated additives helps companies to ensure that their products comply with current environmental, safety and performance standards. These additives are designed in accordance with international directives, facilitating the certification and market introduction process.
