We Speak Your Industry
Hundreds of industries.
Thousands of requirements.
One supplier.
Medicine, transportation, furniture manufacturing. The demands placed on plastics couldn’t be more different. And yet all these industries have one thing in common: the need for high-quality raw materials.
Grässlin, a member of the Hromatka Group, specializes in the distribution of thermoplastics and supplies standard, engineering, and high-performance plastics that are specifically tailored to the needs of various industries.
Let's talk.
We Speak Mobility
Plastics for Mobility and the Automotive Industry
Whether it’s a pleasant feel or an impressive appearance, the tactile and visual properties of our plastics meet the high-quality standards of the automotive, transportation, and transit industries. Our materials also excel in exterior applications thanks to their outstanding mechanical strength and weather resistance, and in the engine compartment, they ensure safety through their heat resistance and resistance to oil and chemicals.
In trains, buses, and airplanes, our polymers also meet the required fire safety and smoke gas tightness ratings.

WE SPEAK ENERGY TRANSITION
Plastics for Energy Transition Technologies
We are in the midst of the energy transition, which presents both challenges and immense opportunities for the industry and its products. Plastic solutions enable innovative designs that offer multifunctionality, such as flame-retardant properties, assembly integration, and thermal conductivity. These properties represent only a small fraction of the possibilities. Our plastic solutions cover all aspects of the energy transition and comply with the new, diverse standards associated with this transformation.
Energy must not only be generated but also stored and transmitted to consumers. This involves converting and storing energy so that it can be used at the right time. A well-developed power grid is essential for charging electric vehicles and integrating them with photovoltaic systems. Heat pumps also play a central role in utilizing the energy generated. We support you in every phase of the energy transition with plastic solutions ranging from PE to PEEK and their compounds.
As Thomas Alva Edison said as early as 1931: “I would put my money on the sun and solar technology. What a source of energy!” Let’s work together to make this vision a reality.
