Kafrit Group has launched local production of advanced conductive solutions based on NemoBLEND masterbatches at Delta Kunststoffe in Germany.

Acquired by Kafrit in late 2022, Delta Kunststoffe specializes in conductive compounds. The affiliate has integrated conductive additives developed by Israel-based Nemo Nanomaterials into its portfolio, providing European manufacturers with cutting-edge, locally produced materials.

Nemo's advanced dispersion methods ensure an even distribution of carbon nanoparticles, preventing agglomeration and maximizing conductivity. This results in compounds combining electrical performance with design flexibility, suited for electrostatic dissipation (ESD), permanent antistatic components, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding in automotive, packaging, and industrial applications.

Nemo's proprietary technology and patent-pending formulations utilize Tuball graphene nanotubes made by Luxembourg-headquartered OCSiAl at its new facility in Serbia.

Nemo’s additives enable features not typically found in traditional conductive solutions, such as color options beyond black, making them highly versatile. Their efficiency at low loading levels frees up space in formulations for additional properties like flame retardancy — a significant advantage for industries requiring multi-functional materials.
