Purging Agent

Purging Agent

A purging agent is a specialized cleaning compound used in plastic processing to remove residual materials, colorants, and contaminants from injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding machinery. These agents are essential for minimizing downtime, reducing material waste, and ensuring high product quality by enabling clean transitions between different resins or colors. Available in both chemical and mechanical formulations, purging agents play a critical role in maintaining machine efficiency and extending the lifespan of plastic processing equipment. In collaboration with Nitto Kako Co., Ltd., Okaya offers the Super Clean series — a line of high-performance purging compounds engineered to handle the toughest cleaning demands in thermoplastic processing.
