The most evident effects of adding EXPANCEL® microspheres to materials and material formulations is the low weight the microspheres offer, either as blowing agents, superior to chemical blowing agents, or as lightweight fillers with many property-improving characteristics.
In addition to these sources of added value, EXPANCEL® microspheres contribute to cost reductions.

Some examples:
o Material savings
o Lower production and finishing costs
o Fewer rejections
o Lower handling and transportation costs
