The CTPC is a leading research and technology center in Morocco specialized in polymer materials, rubber, and composite engineering. While rooted in plasturgy sciences, the center has developed a strong cross-sector positioning, enabling it to address complex challenges across multiple industrial and environmental domains.
Recognized as the national reference in plasturgy and the only center in Morocco providing integrated expertise in this field, CTPC extends its competencies beyond materials to support system-level applications in sectors such as building and construction, water infrastructure including drinking water and ACS piping systems, agriculture, aerospace, packaging, medical applications, and recycling systems.
CTPC is seeking to join a consortium focused on the development of sustainable solutions for the transformation and valorization of perishable agricultural products.
Material performance is assessed through mechanical testing (tensile tests, compression tests, Charpy impact tests, Melt Flow Index (MFI)), thermal analyses (Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), Oxidation Induction Time (OIT)), and chemical analyses (migration tests, ICP, HPLC-UV, GC-MS), ensuring safety and durability of food-contact applications.
KEY CONTRIBUTION
• Study of food-contact polymer materials for processing equipment
• Validation of preservation solutions through advanced mechanical, thermal, and chemical testing
• Integration of recyclable and sustainable materials within a circular economy framework
