Get an exclusive look at Polychim's HD88XI, a new ultra-clear PP homopolymer

07/10/2026

Developed in collaboration with Milliken and optimized with Millad® NX® 8000 ECO technology, this new PP resin combines outstanding stiffness, processability and performance with exceptional transparency.

HS88XI is perfect for applications that have traditionally relied on random copolymers to achieve premium aesthetics, delivering sought-after characteristics like:

  • Exceptional clarity and visual appeal
  • Leading stiffness and mechanical performance
  • Excellent processability
  • Favorable migration profile for food-packaging applications
  • Support for mono-material and recyclable packaging solutions

This innovation allows converters and brand owners to achieve premium packaging aesthetics while benefiting from the performance and sustainability advantages of polypropylene homopolymer.

Curious to see the result? Come and talk to our team at Fakuma.

Le Figaro puts the spotlight on Polychim Industrie

29/09/2026

We're pleased to see Le Figaro take a closer look at Polychim Industrie and the role we play within the French and European Industrial landscape.

From producing Polypropylene for a wide range of essential applications to strenghtening local supply and developing lower-impact material solutions, the article highlights both the strategic importance of European production and the transformation underway in our industry.

More sustainable packaging starts with understanding the full picture

06/09/2026

This World Packaging Day, we're putting the spotlight on something that matters when making packaging decisions: data.

Material choices are not always as straightforward as they appear.
Weight, raw material use, processing, transport, product protection and end-of-life can all influence the environmental impact of a packaging solution.

Life Cycle Assessment helps us look beyond assumptions and evaluate that impact across measurable indicators.

For Polypropylene, its low density and material efficiency can translate into important advantages for rigid food packaging — while Polychim Industrie achieves a cradle-to-gate carbon footprint of 1.0 kg CO2-eq. per kg of Polypropylene produced.*

Because making better packaging choices starts with the evidence behind them.

*Based on Polychim Industrie's Product Carbon Footprint assessment.
