About Bauckloh Kunststoffhandels GmbH
Bauckloh Kunststoffhandels GmbH is a family-run trading company from Lüdenscheid in the Sauerland region, specialised in the trade of plastic granulates. The portfolio ranges from regrind and recyclates to virgin and off-spec material, with a focus on polyethylene, Makrolon (PC) and Hostaform (POM) as well as other thermoplastics. On around 4000 m² of warehouse space at two sites, materials are reprocessed in-house: six mixing units perform homogenisation, colouring and customer-specific blending. Every incoming and outgoing delivery is tested, including melt flow index measurement (MFI), density measurement, ash content, Shore hardness and irradiation tests. Regranulation and compounding are carried out in cooperation with local grinding operations and compounders. Customers are distributors and plastics processing companies, especially from the injection moulding industry, locally, nationwide and internationally.
