Solve Color, Strength, and Recycling Challenges in Polyester

Tailored polyester solutions for demanding fiber and fabric performance.

For more than 30 years, Americhem has advanced polyester technology with custom compounds and masterbatch systems that balance durability, color precision, and sustainability. Our portfolio spans PET, PBT, PTT, and PETG—each engineered for performance in fiber spinning, extrusion, film, and molded applications.

We design polyester formulations with end-use demands in mind, whether that means higher yarn strength, improved processing efficiency, or recycled content integration. Additive technologies such as UV stabilizers, lubricated grades, and PET Renewal Additives allow polyester producers to achieve consistent aesthetics and reliable performance across global markets.

Applications include:
  • Polyester fiber and yarn engineered for tensile strength in textiles and nonwovens
  • Automotive seatbelts, interior fabrics, and trim with abrasion and chemical resistance
  • Film and sheet for packaging, bottles, and thermoformed containers
  • Carpeting and upholstery designed for colorfastness and wear resistance
  • Apparel and industrial fabrics with stain resistance and dimensional stability
  • Molded polyester components requiring clarity, toughness, or FDA compliance

Every Americhem polyester formulation is validated in-house for dispersion, processability, and appearance – ensuring consistent results from raw material to finished part.
