We've been using KW500 Recycled (100% Post-Consumer - from auto battery cases from KW Plastics) Copolymer Polypropylene for over 15 years and they have come to a 'grinding' halt (pun not nec. intended) selling it to anyone but their largest direct customers.

Can anyone with similar experience recommend a suitable drop in replacement which is also a 100% Post-Consumer Recycled product (why, I simply prefer to use recycled!) with similar Izod, Melt Flow, etc.

Our product does have both a living hinge and a conformable nose piece so the properties of a co-polymer as well as chemical resistance are critical to the success of our product.

Please set those ideas free!

All the best,

Ken
