Slide's NuPurge Technology Replaces Multiple Products with a Single Purge


Wheeling, IL - A new purging compound that removes all traces of barrel residue in any plastics processing application - in less time and for less cost - is now available from Slide Products, Inc. Utilizing a completely new, reactive chemistry, Slide's NuPurge Technology (NPT) is a single compound that performs at all temperatures between 160 F and 600 F, eliminating the need for multiple purging products. Processors now need to warehouse and use only one purging product instead of several, dramatically reducing overhead and operating costs.

NPT solves one of the major problems in plastics processing - removing stubbom residue between color or resin changes. The most effective new purging technology developed in the last 30 years, it consists of concentrated purge pellets that react chemically to heat, quickly and effectively cleaning machinery without extra soak time, excess downtime or lost productivity.
The resulting purge is so effective that even resin deposits accumulated over long periods are often removed the first time NPT is used.

Ready-to-use, NPT requires no mixing or preparation time, shortening the clean-up cycle. Just pour the recommended amount (1.5 times barrel capacity) directly into the throat of the machine. NPT is so concentrated that less compound - up to one-half the amount of cracked acrylic - is needed for a complete purge.

NPT is also non-hazardous, FDA compliant and free of harsh odors. It comes conveniently packaged in 5 lb. jugs, 150 lb. barrels and gaylords.
