CHG Thermoplast plastics distribution – partner to the plastics processing industry
Pan-European, reliable plastics distribution is our tradition. Founded in 1974 in Berlin, CHG Thermoplast has grown to become a pan-European trading and distribution company specialised in the distribution of standard plastics, technical and thermoplastic plastics as well as additives from well-known manufacturers. For more than a decade, our varied portfolio has also included bespoke polymer solutions. Important values such as price awareness, delivery dependability, quality and know-how mark us as a reliable partner whose customers and suppliers appreciate our commitment to long-standing business relationships equally as much as our solution-oriented action approach and our flexibility.
