MALMÖ, Sweden - RENOLIT, a provider of high-quality plastic films, has completed the switch of all U.S. production for its signage and graphics market product range to the non-phthalate plasticizer Pevalen™, produced by Perstorp.

It takes our compliance beyond the tough existing safety regulations and responds to the increasing consumer demand for greater sustainability. In making this switch, we have gained a clear competitive advantage in this market.” He continued, “Our high-quality signage and graphics products make a significant difference to many of our customers, which are developed with both their processing requirements and end-use performance in mind.”
