TOTAL COMMITTED TO THE ROTATIONAL MOULDING INDUSTRY Our dedicated product slate is based on 15 years of experience in the metallocene catalysis. We designed two HDPE high end grades, M3581UV and M4041UV for the most demanding applications PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 3
INNOVATION IN PP THE MISSING LINK TO ROTATIONAL MOULDING We brought our Lumicene metallocene catalysis expertise into our the PP field, giving access to - Outstanding gloss - Unrivalled transparency - Clean polymer Gloss m- RCP Transparency PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 4
Courtesy of PEG-PEREGO INNOVATION IN POLYPROPYLENE Our impact copolymers are used in the most demanding applications like car child seats or crates that need to transport high value automotive parts. PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 5
Thierry Gonzales / Total POLYPROPYLENE Opening new possibilities in Rotational Moulding Burkhard Reck, Sales Director Rotomoulding K Fair Düsseldorf, 17/10/2013
Company History Introduction In 2011 setting up a production line for the manufacturing of Microgranules based on Polyethylene (PE) and Polypropylene (PP) In 2012 start of compounds and Microgranules production at new production site in D-Remscheid Co-operation with compounder and grinder for the production of standard compounds and powder PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 7
Company Staff Burkhard Reck Loyal to the European Rotational Moulding market for almost 2 decades, joined HD Kunststoffe beginning of 2012 and is fully in charge of the Rotational Moulding business at HD Kunststoffe Heinrich Derenowski The founder and owner of HD Kunststoffe, he developed PP Microgranules together with TOTAL and he now leaded the process to its technical maturity PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 8
Company Staff Daniel Frorath The reliable contact person in the office in D-Remscheid for the customer service and for the processing of all customer enquiries He goes along with the projekt PP Microgranules since his apprenticeship at HD Kunststoffe 100% focused on Rotational Moulding PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 9
Product Product Discription Why Microgranules? Microgranules are a special delivery form of thermoplastic polymers: Reproducible small granules in lenses form Finished product in one process: Better control of the production process, preserve the polymer properties (only one thermal impact), energy saving (participant at Effizienz-Preis von NRW - MP Johannes Remmel) Challenges of compact shape: Better dry-flow - no bridging, easier, cleaner and less dangerous handling (no dust) PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 10
Product Product Discription Polypropylene and Microgranules HD eco-tech - trade name of the PP Microgranules - opens new economical possibilities and solutions for Rotational Moulding: - weight reduction through optimisation of wall thickness (30-40% less material) - extreme high impact strength (>64 KJ/m2 at 23 C), also relatively good at minus temperatures - extreme good heat resistance (up to 148 C) - very nice and shiny inside and outside surface possible - based on Total polypropylene PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 11
Product Product Discription Polypropylene and Microgranules HD eco-tech - trade name of the PP Microgranules - opens new economical possibilities and solutions for Rotational Moulding: - very high scratch resistance - easy to process - very similar to PE - available in Natural, Black and any Colour - Microgranules will be delivered ready for processing Opening new possibilities in Rotational Moulding Made possible thanks to Total s impact copolymer and Lumicene PP PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 12
Product Product Discription HD eco-tech HD eco-tech PP-Microgranules are closing the gap between the low-priced Polyethylene (PE) and the cost-intensive Polyamid (PA), which opens new possibilities for Rotational Moulding In addition to the special material characteristics of Polypropylene and Polypropylene compounds we are able to offer our customers a big variety of taylor made products including a good service PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 13

WHAT DOES LUMICENE TECHNOLOGY BRINGS? Benefits of Metallocene technology to random PP : Less migrating compounds & volatiles (oligomers, low molecular weight chains ) Better organoleptic properties Less high molecular weight chains (influent in warpage) Better dimensional stability Less migrating compounds & VOC (oligomers, waxes, low weight PP) => Better organoleptic properties Less high molecular weight => Better optical properties and impact resistance (even at -30 C) PP : Opening new possibilities in rotomoulding 27
