NexKemia is making significant strides in the field of sustainable materials by developing specialty expandable polystyrene (EPS) resins that incorporate recycled content. Our innovative approach includes the use of advanced extrusion technologies to create products that are not only environmentally friendly but also offer high-quality performance. The NexEco family of products, all which features recycled content, are marked by the ECO signature in their brand name. Additionally, each grade of product with recycled content is identified with the “E30” designation in its product code. These designations signify a commitment to sustainability, indicating that the products contain recycled materials and align with the company’s vision for a greener future in the industry.

NexKemia recycle content resins are available in EPS and GPS, Modified and Regular Grades. NexKemia’s approach to sustainability is to convert single use polystyrene products, which historically has been landfilled, into a valuable resource thus creating a greener planet for future generations. Most impressive is the recycled content does not impact the physical properties of the resulting molded products, EPS/GPS molded with NexKemia’s recycled content resins perform equally to that of EPS/GPS molded with virgin resin. Coming in late 2024/early 2025 is the UL listings for the Modified Grade recycled content resins in both EPS and GPS.
