Alpha Calcit and Lehmann&Voss&Co. sign distribution agreement for flame retardant additive

The focus of the agreement, which applies to the DACH region, is the ALFRIMAL® product line, Alpha Calcit's aluminium hydroxide (ATH)-based flame retardant. 
In the event of fire, these act directly as a halogen-free, flame-retardant filler and have a smoke-retardant effect without impairing the processing of materials in terms of their colour, surface or even grip. 
Depending on the surface of the material, the products can release their bound crystal water at different rates and thus provide lasting support for many products in the cable, rubber and thermoplastics industries, making them safer to use. 
The agreement between Alpha Calcit and Lehmann&Voss&Co. includes an expansion of the sales activities for the rubber industry for the middle customer segment in the area of Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
The basis for this is Lehmann&Voss&Co.'s traditionally good relations in this branch of industry.

Alpha Calcit Füllstoff GmbH, headquartered in Cologne and with several production sites in different countries, is a producer and supplier of industrial minerals. Founded in 1919 and today fully integrated from open pit mining to the finished product, the supplier offers filler and flame retardant solutions for the application areas of plastics and rubber, construction, paints and varnishes, consumer goods, paper, printing inks, environment, etc.
