EASTMAN BENZOFLEX®

PLASTICIZERS

IT WORKS EVEN WITHOUT PHTHALATES!

Phthalates are rumored to be hazardous to health. Perhaps you are already searching for alternatives. We will be glad to present you with phthalate-free softeners. Phthalates make plastics soft and flexible and are therefore used in many everyday products, for example in toys, packaging, hoses, floor coverings, and furnishings.
