Mocom to showcase compounds at Chinaplas 2026

Mocom to showcase compounds…

Mocom, a global compounder of thermoplastic polymers, will present its latest material innovations at Chinaplas 2026, which will take place on April 21–24 in Shanghai. In Hall 7.2H at Stand D14, the company will exhibit together with its sister company and distributor Albis. The two companies will showcase a portfolio of advanced polymer compounds intended for the automotive and transportation, electrical and electronics, and sports and leisure sectors.

This year, Mocom’s presentation will focus on three main areas, lighting, sustainability, as well as lightweight and flame-retardant solutions. The company has announced an integrated material portfolio designed to address functional and design requirements in various industrial applications. The solutions on display will include materials for precise light control, compounds containing recycled raw materials, as well as plastics with high stiffness and reduced density intended for lightweight structures. The display will also include materials for infrared applications and surface solutions that make it possible to achieve specific visual effects without additional finishing processes.

Materials for lighting, recyclates, and lightweight compounds

In the lighting segment, Mocom will present its Alcom lighting portfolio, which includes materials for precise light control. The range includes Light Guiding (LG), Light Diffusion (LD), and Light Blocking (LB) solutions. These materials are intended for advanced lighting concepts such as ambient light guides, combining functional properties with design flexibility, particularly in automotive applications.

In the sustainability segment, the company will present ECO products, namely compounds based on recycled materials. According to the information provided, these raw materials are sourced both globally and, where possible, locally in China. These solutions are intended to support circular economy strategies while maintaining consistent performance properties.

In the area of lightweight and flame-retardant materials, Mocom will present high-performance compounds that meet demanding safety and regulatory requirements while enabling lightweight design. Among them are carbon fiber reinforced materials such as Wic, which are characterised by high stiffness, low density, and are intended to contribute to reducing CO2 emissions.

Materials for infrared and surface finishes

In addition, Mocom announces the presentation of materials combining functional properties with high-quality surface finish. One example is the Alcom LIR (Light Infrared) portfolio, produced in Changshu. These materials provide high transmission in the near-infrared range while maintaining a deep black appearance in visible light. This allows sensors and cameras to operate reliably behind surfaces while remaining visually integrated into the component design.

Complementing this offer are colour-effect and surface materials that make it possible to achieve glossy, matte, metallic, or pearlescent finishes without the need for additional painting or metallisation.

As Klaus-Simon Dröge, Managing Director Asia-Pacific at Mocom, emphasises, "Our ambition is to be a reliable partner, combining global expertise with local execution. We develop solutions close to our customers while ensuring that they are scalable and available worldwide, across Asia, Europe, and the Americas."

An international team of experts will be present on site to support technical discussions, application development, and project implementation.
