It is the perfect choice for sensitive applications and products in direct human contact, e.g. apparel and accessories, sports &amp; leisure products, automotive interiors or other indoor applications such as furniture, floors or wall coverings in both homes and public spaces. Pevalen has a unique performance not matched by any other general-purpose plasticizer with high plasticizing efficiency in combination with low migration and volatility.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cGlobal demand for non-phthalate plasticizers is predicted to continue to grow at about 100.000 tons per year\u201d<\/em>, said Markus J\u00f6nsson, Vice President Plasticizers, Perstorp. Based on this forecast, Perstorp is substantially expanding the production capacity of Pevalen from 2019 onwards. Perstorp has entered into a long-term production agreement with the Italian company Alcoplast Srl.. The new partnership more than doubles current production capacity, bringing it in total to 50.000 tons per year.<\/p>\n<p>For more detailed information regarding the FCN, please contact Jenny Klev\u00e5s, Product manager, Perstorp.
