Showcasing Axieo's products and innovation

Axieo connects customers with global products, ideas, and innovation through its Specialties and Masterbatch businesses.  Revium was requested to develop Axieo’s website.

Axieo Specialties enjoys exclusive partnerships with Principals and trading partners around the world.  They combine their Principals’ R&D with their internal application capability to provide innovative solutions for customers through best in class food ingredients and raw materials for markets like pharmaceuticals, coatings, plastics, personal care and agriculture. 

Axieo Masterbatch is one of the Asia Pacific’s leading Masterbatch producers, supplying colourants and functional additives to change the characteristics of plastics, ensuring everyday products are food safe, UV resistant or fire retardant.  Axieo Masterbatch is a key input in a broad range of products from food packaging and plastic bottles to synthetic grass, stadium seating and water tanks, and even high performance pipes for the coal seam gas industry.
