Due to the new agreement, Biesterfeld now holds distribution rights for the engineering thermoplastics throughout the EMEA region.
The acetal homopolymer Delrin has been specially developed for mechanically demanding applications. According to Biesterfeld , its materials offer high crystallinity, good toughness even at low temperatures, high mechanical strength and stiffness as well as excellent fatigue resistance.
The engineering thermoplastics also have high dimensional stability, good electrical properties and excellent chemical resistance. The wide range of applications in which polymers are used include the automotive, household appliances, construction, installation, electronics and consumer goods industries. Typical application examples are gears, drug systems, safety-relevant components, door and conveyor systems as well as components in sports equipment.
"Delrin and Biesterfeld have been writing a joint success story for over 30 years," explains Martin Rathke, Global Business Director Engineered Polymers at Biesterfeld. "This new agreement represents another milestone in our long-standing cooperation. Thanks to her, we can now offer a complete product portfolio of engineering materials to all our customers throughout EMEA. We are very much looking forward to marketing Delrin materials in these regions and bringing their added value to our customers."
