 MRC
Polymers’ proprietary recycling and compounding
technologies establish us as the industry leader in
providing consistent, high quality, engineering grade
resins.
We are committed to delivering the highest-quality
products. This means that every pound of material we
ship passes rigorous A2LA registered and UL approved
laboratory tests to ensure that it meets exact specifications.To
make a high-quality product, each component of the process
is carefully monitored and controlled.
Rigorous
Testing
Every year, the North American plastics industry produces
over 5 billion pounds of engineering grade resins.1
MRC Polymers has established partnerships with suppliers
that generate large quantities of such feedstock. By
sourcing directly from the generators, MRC can ensure
acontinuous supply of feedstock.
All sourced materials are rigorously inspected, tested,
and blended. Failed material is rejected and quarantined.
On-Site Laboratory
In addition to our stringent quality assurance procedures
implemented on the factory floor, MRC Polymers has an
A2LA registered and UL approved laboratory on site.
This quality control lab is staffed by highly-trained
polymer chemists and technicians and testing is done
24 hours a day. Our technicians monitor every lot produced,
testing for strict conformity to product specifications.
MRC only releases product that complies with our rigorous
process that meets customer specifications.
Our state-of-the-art laboratory allows us to engage
the most rigorous of testing procedures to ensure that
we satisfy all job requirements.
Recycling
Systematic grinding, separating, washing, mixing and
aspirating allows MRC to process plastic feedstock to
its highest value-added state. Processed raw materials
are tested and approved for use.
Precise
Formulation and Compounding
Once approved, raw materials are converted into uniform
finished products using standard formulations, virgin
additives, and sophisticated manufacturing technologies.
Adherence to strict, proprietary formulations creates
MRC Polymers’ finished products.
Throughout the compounding
phase, processing conditions are closely monitored.
Samples are taken from the line and rigorous laboratory
tests ensure that each lot meets strict specifications.
Manufactured compounds are post-blended to ensure the
highest levels of color, viscosity, and physical property
consistency. This guarantees a consistency not offered
by all resin suppliers.
Value
Driven Innovation
Since its founding, MRC Polymers has been driven to
serve its customers and the environment by developing
the least cost production methods for recycling and
compounding engineering grade resins.
Proprietary Process Development
Our proprietary processes enable us to convert landfill-ready
plastics to their purest form. The processes we’ve
developed for mixing, grinding, separating, washing
and aspirating allow us to improve the plastic to its
highest value-added state, ready for formulation and
compounding.
Industry Leadership
As industry leaders in plastics recycling and compounding,
we have defined the term ‘success’. Our
innovation and flexibility keeps us ahead of our competitors
and enables our customers to continually improve the
products they produce.
Examples of our recent innovations include:
- Post-blending for lot consistency
- Large lot production of up to 200,000 pounds
- Advanced extrusion screw design
- Polycarbonate alloys including PC/ABS for cold
temperature ductility
- Advanced material handling systems for efficient
production
