COLORColor inspires, energizes, and builds brand recognition, and choosing the right supplier is as important as selecting the right color. We offer color technology options in standard precolored resins or custom compounds, UniColorTM Masterbatches, or cube blends.

CONDUCTIVEWe offer compounds for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, EMI shielding, or PermaStat® permanent anti-static protection. Available in particulate and all polymeric-based materials, these compounds can be colored, as well.

FLAME RETARDANTWhether you are developing a new product or need to reformulate due to ever-changing regulations, we can custom engineer a flame retardant material with the exact properties you require.

STRUCTURALOur reinforced structural compounds can increase strength, stiffness, and provide resistance to impact, creep, and fatigue. Ideal for metal or other material replacement, our formulas can be customized to meet cost and performance targets.

TPEOur thermoplastic elastomers provide rubber-like performance with the processing benefits of thermoplastic resin. We offer a wide range of options, from standard, in-stock resins to custom compounds designed to meet your specifications.

WEAR RESISTANTOur wear resistant thermoplastic compounds can incorporate internal lubricants to reduce wear and friction, thereby lengthening the service life of your application and reducing your processing costs.

Automotive Dashboard ElectronicsRTP Company has many material

solutions for automotive applications,

including back-lit dashboard electronics.

CASE STUDYRTP Company formulated a customized

RTP 300 Series Polycarbonate (PC) light

diffused compound for the LED back-lit

dashboard electronics in

the Ford Edge®.

RTP Company: Your Global Compounder of Custom Engineered ThermoplasticsFor more than 30 years, RTP Company has been

delivering innovative thermoplastic solutions that meet

the exact material requirements of the LED industry.

From thermally conductive compounds to halogen-free

materials, RTP Company has the right solution for you.

Our global team of R&D and technical service

engineers, Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) analysts,

and sales and customer service representatives allows

us to support your custom engineered thermoplastic

needs from design through production, anywhere in

the world. Our collective experience and global assets

provide you with a unique competitive advantage.

From the Start, Partner with RTP CompanyWe provide...

• Innovative, value-added solutions, not off-the-shelf

materials

• Engineered thermoplastics that optimize your

design and reduce manufacturing costs

• Short lead times that expedite prototyping and

streamline production

• Consistent quality you can rely on, globally

• Responsive and personalized service from

experienced materials experts

LED lighting compounds from RTP Company can be formulated to complement the wavelength of light emitted from the LED.

LED LIGHTING APPLICATIONS

Medical LightingRTP Company offers a broad range

of healthcare-specific LED materials,

including non-halogenated and

thermally conductive compounds.

CASE STUDYRTP Company replaced a traditional

metal heat sink with a thermally

conductive Nylon (PA) 6/6 compound

to reduce weight and increase design

flexibility.

Work LightsVirtually every part of a work

light / flashlight can be made of

thermoplastic materials.

CASE STUDYIn addition to LED materials, this thin-walled flashlight

required a static dissipative compound with tighter

control over electrical properties that also

improved processability. RTP Company’s

solution was a high-flow conductive

Polypropylene (PP)

compound.

Bicycle LightsRTP Company also offers many different

LED materials for consumer goods, including

bicycle lights and reflectors.

Application Examples

Ford Edge® is a registered trademark of Ford Motor Company.
