Custom Compounding
From virgin & recycled feedstocks
We compound a broad base of thermoplastic engineering polymers and tune them with performance additives to hit your exact specification — from a single standard grade to a fully custom formulation.
Base Polymers
Nylon (PA6 / 66 / 6.6 / 666 / 12 / PPA) · PP · ABS · PC · PBT · PET · POM · HDPE · Alloys (PC/ABS, PC/PBT, PC/ASA etc) · PEI · PPS
Additives & Modifications
- Glass Fibre
- Carbon Fibre
- Mineral
- Impact Modifier
- Colour Fibre
- Flame Retardant

Long Fibre Thermoplastics
Polystruct bridges the gap between slow continuous-fibre composites and low-performance short-fibre plastics — combining the design freedom and light weight of thermoplastics with the strength of very long fibres. Duromer is the first and only LFT compounder in Australia.
- Pellets containing continuous fibres, customised 8–25 mm in length
- Glass and carbon fibre reinforcement
- PA6, PA66, PA6/66 , PA12, PP, HDPE, TPU base polymers
- Injection, extrusion & compression moulding
- Improved creep and fatigue resistance
- Metal-replacement strength at a fraction of the weight.
Recycled Polymers
Performance with a lighter footprint
Since 2012 Duromer has supplied high-quality post-industrial recycled thermoplastics. We help customers close the loop and meet regulatory requirements for recycled content while minimising any performance variation inherent in the use of recycled polymers.
Post-industrial recycled
PP, PE & ABS
A growing range of quality recyclate grades.
Re-pelletising & scrap re-use
Turn production scrap back into usable material.
Consistent, QC-tested quality
Every batch verified.
Lower environmental impact
Sustainable value engineered into the compound.
R&D & laboratory
Validated performance, faster development
Our fully equipped laboratory serves both Quality Control and Research & Development — enabling rapid development-to-production cycles and independently validated material performance.
