Current Innovations

TPP-free and TPP-reduced AW additives

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has identified triphenyl phosphate (TPP) as an endocrine disruptor and has officially added it to the Candidate List as a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC).

We are currently developing alternatives that are completely free of TPP while delivering comparable performance.

TPPT alternatives as EP additive

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) will officially add triphenyl thiophosphate (TPPT) to the Candidate List as a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) in January 2025.

We are currently developing alternatives to TPPT that offer comparable performance with a better classification.

We are happy to support you.
