Sekisui Plastics is one of the foremost chemical firms in Japan. Its lines of business include the manufacture and marketing of Techpolymer spherical polymer particles. Comindex is its exclusive distributor for Spain, Portugal and Morocco.
 
Techpolymer microspheres are primarily PMMA- and PS-based, and there are several qualities according to particle size, distribution and strength. Spherical particles with a high degree of recovery are especially noteworthy as they provide high scratch resistance.
