What we do

Operating from the start of the petrochemical chain and building quality into the plastic resins - the base for the development of different industrial fields along the chain –, Quattor makes the consumers' daily life a little easier in several ways.  This can be seen in more versatile packaging, more durable domestic utensils, toys, cosmetics, paints, and varnishes, more advanced medical equipment, lighter and safer cars, more comfortable clothes, more innovative appliances, and even bolder construction projects.

Quattor uses technologies that allow for flexibility in the selection of raw materials: naphtha, natural gas or refinery gas, which is now being used for the first time in the country and is provided by REVAP, based in São José dos Campos, SP.

This flexibility allows Quattor to offer its clients a complete portfolio of basic chemical products, polyethylene, and polypropylene. Quattor has the flexibility needed to produce grids and to quickly satisfy its partners' needs.

Quattor is present in the daily lives of millions of people throughout the world: in packaging, home appliances, toys, cosmetics, fabrics, paints, varnishes, medical devices, and in construction products.

You wouldn’t buy a Quattor product in stores or supermarkets, but the quality of our products is present in your life.

Applications

BASIC PETROCHEMICALS

Unilene: Quattor’s brand of hydrocarbon resins. They are used by rubber, wood, and cardboard industries. They are the raw material for making adhesives, plastics, concrete cure, putties, asphalt components, paints, varnishes, and hot-melt, to name a few.

BASIC CHEMICALS: used in the manufacture of rubber, latex, industrial detergents, lubrication oil additives, and aerosols, among others. The group has products such as Butadiene, Benzene, Ortho-xylene, Aromatic Residue, Cumene, Nonene, Tetramer, and Propane.

Solvents: Raw materials for paints, pesticides, cleaning solvents, protective, and anticorrosive oils, printing paints, and lubricants.

POLYETHYLENES

EVA

Ethylene and Vinyl Acetate Copolymer is mostly used by transformers in the segments of extrusion, expanded sheets, and adhesives. It is a raw material for making hot-melt films and adhesives, among others.

Low Density Polyethylene (PEBD): used in food packaging, industrial bags, trash bags, agricultural tarpaulins, flexible films for packaging and labels for toys, lids, flasks for pharmaceutical and hygiene products, among others.

Low Density Linear Polyethylene (PELBD): primary raw material used in the packaging of food products (e.g. rice, beans, flour, and sugar), freezer packaging, animal feed packaging, petrochemical products, and fertilizers.

Medium Density Linear Polyethylene (PELMD): used in the packaging of toilet paper and napkins, in the composition of diapers and sanitary napkins, as well as in rotational molding of water reservoirs, tanks, toys, and shipping containers.

Metalocenic Polyethylene (mPE): produced from special catalysts, has been used in diverse applications (such as  technical films for meats, poultry, and cereal, and stretch films) requiring excellent final performance in terms of mechanical resistance or weldability.

High Density Polyethylene (PEAD): used in the production of supermarket plastic bags, produce sacks, containers for hygiene and cleaning products, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food products, as well as for gas, water and sewage pipes, fuel tanks, shade screens and other products.

POLYPROPYLENES

Homopolymer Polypropylene: used in the production of threads and fibers for carpets, decorative fabrics, ropes, and technical fabrics (not destined for diapers, and sanitary napkins), household appliances, raffia bags, paltes, packaging straps, disposable cups and pots, kitchen wares, films for flexible packaging for textile and food products, furniture, construction materials and other products.

Polypropylene Heterophasic Copolymer : due to its high impact resistance, even at low temperatures, it is used in the production of automotive parts such as bumpers, panels and battery casings, metallic tube coating, toys, household appliances, industrial buckets and boxes, kitchen wares, flasks and lids for cosmetics, hygiene and cleaning products, ice cream pots, honeycombed sheets, and other products.

Polypropylene Random Copolymer: with its main characteristic being high transparency, it is used in the production of disposable cups and pots, transparent smooth sheets, water bottles, household appliances, transparent containers and lids for cosmetic, hygienic, cleaning, pharmaceutical, and food products, transparent kitchen wares, films, and other products.
