Perstorp/Sweden — The new partnership more than doubles the current production capacity, bringing it in total to 50.000 tons per year and improving unit metrics due to the economies of scale.

Pevalen (pentaerythritol tetravalerate or PETV) is the manufacturer’s high-performance, true non-phthalate plasticizer. It is designed for sensitive applications and products in direct human contact, e.g. toys and childcare products, apparel and accessories, sports & leisure products, automotive interiors or other indoor applications such as furniture, floors or wall coverings in both homes and public spaces.

Plans for further investments to increase the production capacity of Pevalen beyond 100,000 tonnes are advancing and will be timed to meet future market demand. (Deposit Photos)

According to the company, global demand for non-phthalate plasticizers is predicted to continue to grow with about 100.000 tons per year. Perstorp believes that the non-phthalate segment will continue to grow and that Pevalen will increasingly become a go-to choice for the segment.
