Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) combine the best properties of plastics and elastomers: They are flexible, durable and easy to process. This makes them indispensable in numerous industrial applications.
Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) is an important additive for the production of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). It is used as an impact modifier and can improve the mechanical properties of the end product. Here, we will examine the properties of CPE as an impact modifier in PVC, its advantages, and limitations.
Plastics and elastomers are essential materials in various industries, such as the automotive, electrical and electronics, and packaging industries. To ensure their quality and durability, primary and secondary antioxidants are frequently added to these materials. Here, the different mechanisms of action of primary and secondary antioxidants, as well as their combinations in plastics and elastomers, are explained.
Summer is vacation season – and with it begins the time of vacation coverage at WTH GmbH in Stade. While some colleagues are enjoying the sun, the beach, or the mountains, the remaining teams ensure that day-to-day operations continue to run smoothly and reliably.
After three successful exhibition days at KUTENO 2026 in Bad Salzuflen, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to all visitors, customers, business partners, and interested professionals who stopped by the WTH booth in Hall 20.

For internationally operating trading companies such as WTH GmbH, Incoterms® are far more than mere delivery clauses. Especially with imports from overseas – primarily Asia – and subsequent distribution within the German and EU markets, they provide clarity regarding cost allocation, risk transfer, insurance obligations, and customs responsibilities. When applied correctly, Incoterms® reduce disputes, increase planning reliability, and form a central pillar of professional supply chain management.
Short and clear: Incoterms® are not statutory law—neither superior to national law nor to EU law. Consequently, they do not override (“break”) domestic or EU legislation. Incoterms® apply only if they are expressly incorporated into the contract and must always be interpreted within the framework of the applicable legal system.
Incoterms provide clarity in both international and domestic trade. They define the rights and obligations of buyers and sellers in a uniform, globally recognized way and are regularly reviewed and updated by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). What Incoterms do not regulate, however, are payment terms or internal processes such as invoicing and document flow. This is precisely where misunderstandings often arise in day-to-day business.
