R&D that changes the scale of chemistry.

From formulation to pilot production, we prepare every result for real process conditions.

Ministry-certified R&D Centre

More than a laboratory. A centre built to work with production.

The Plastay R&D Centre was certified by the Ministry of Industry and Technology on 6 February 2024. It brings analytical validation, material knowledge and manufacturing experience into one development process.

Analytical validation

We evaluate material behaviour through measurable data.

Pilot scale

We bring development results closer to real process conditions.

Production transfer

We turn technical outcomes into repeatable production decisions.

Researchers working in the Plastay R&D Centre laboratory

We turn laboratory data into production decisions.

Analytical, physical and thermal tests are used alongside process and pilot-production equipment. This allows us to assess not only how a formulation performs in the laboratory, but how it behaves when the scale changes.

Our research agenda begins with a current industrial need.

Our work improves product performance while creating practical options for safer raw materials, more efficient processes and lower environmental impact.

Bio-based plasticisers

Developing new raw materials and formulations that can provide alternatives to petro-based inputs.

Safer additive systems

Researching and validating safer stabiliser and plasticiser options.

Flame-retardant PVC compounds

Material systems designed to meet mechanical and safety requirements together.

Value recovery from waste

Recovering reusable chemicals with economic value from waste streams.

Green catalysts

Catalyst research for more efficient reaction routes and lower environmental impact.

We test an idea at three scales.

We analyse chemical structure, measure material performance and reproduce the result at pilot scale.

Analytical instruments in the Plastay laboratory

Analytical and physical analysis

We evaluate material structure, composition and fundamental physical behaviour through comparative data.

Rheometer and testing equipment in the Plastay laboratory

Measurement and performance testing

We measure performance under application conditions and validate the consistency of critical properties.

Pilot production and processing

We reassess the laboratory-validated approach at pilot scale and prepare its transition to production conditions.

A good result is a repeatable result.

A project does not end with a laboratory note. Technical feasibility, production scale and performance are validated together.

Define the conditions

We clarify application, process, cost and regulatory targets within one technical framework.

Build the formulation

Alternative raw materials and formulations are compared using analytical data.

Measure performance

Critical properties are verified through physical, thermal and process testing.

Increase the scale

Pilot production confirms repeatability and prepares the transition to manufacturing conditions.

University–industry collaborations

We conduct joint research and development work that brings academic expertise together with our application experience.

Industry–industry collaborations

We work with partners across different industries on technical needs and shared development.

National and international projects

We take part in project structures that strengthen our capabilities, support knowledge sharing and help transfer research outcomes to industry.
