Hallstar Acquires Specialty Plasticizer Product Line from Dow
New Product Line Further Bolsters HallStar's Ester Technology Portfolio
CHICAGO - The HallStar Company announced today that it has acquired the TP-series product line of specialty plasticizers from The Dow Chemical Company.
The deal incorporates both the trade names and proprietary manufacturing technology of the globally established TP-series brand of plasticizers, which includes TP-90B(TM), TP-759(TM) and TP-95(TM). The purchase provides HallStar with a broader range of ester technology principally used in rubber modification.

"Acquiring the TP-series product line broadens our global footprint and strengthens our portfolio of recognized plasticizer brands which includes Paraplex®, Monoplex®, Dioplex®, Staflex® and Plasthall®."
