At IPR we have been involved in compounding and formulating a very wide variety of water-based polymer dispersions for an extensive range of applications. Our aim is to provide a service where our customers can combine their specific application knowledge with our polymer selection and formulating expertise to produce water-based polymer composites that combine the best performance / price parameters.

Whilst we pride ourselves that we can formulate products for any application, the following are some of the products we produce.

Several of our customers originally mixed and blended their own compound, but found that they were carrying many hidden costs that they could not control. If you think that your own mixing set-up is inefficient or under utilised you may find that IPR can supply you with ready to use compound at a competitive price. Please get in touch and discuss your requirements.
