Capabilities

Altera Polymers manufactures specialty thermoplastic materials formulated to precisely meet the physical property and appearance specifications defined by our customers. Throughout every phase of the development process, Altera Polymers’ mission is to exceed the quality and cost expectations held by our customers and throughout the global market. 

We are able to do this through a diverse manufacturing footprint and a firm technical skill set. Across our two manufacturing sites, located in Easley, SC, and Jefferson, OH, we are able to process 55 lb. custom orders as economically as we can produce bulk load quantities. These economies of scale offer our customers the ability to rely on Altera Polymers as a “one-stop” supplier for all their material needs. 

Our current production capabilities are defined by single-screw, continuous mixing, and twin-screw technologies. Altera Polymers’ lines offer varying feeding systems, including downstream and liquid, and our finished products can be supplied as strand-cut or underwater-cut pellets.
