[Background music plays]
The video opens with a fast-paced, upbeat synth adaptation of The Sound of Shell.
Dr. Chen Jun - subtitles
In our product formulation system SX105 is often like the final brick that holds everything together. After using it, our product will be even more perfect.
Video footage
A close-up captures small, white, rounded TPE pellets being mechanically agitated in a mixing drum, as a rotating metal blade stirs the granules into a swirling motion. The pellets then cascade and bounce onto a dark, textured surface as Dr. Chen Jun begins. Another close-up shows a heavy industrial compounding machine on a factory line processing material as a cloud of steam rises from its heated metal components. A close-up shows a translucent stream of molten synthetic wax flowing smoothly over a roller on a production line, with faint red light reflections in the background. A medium shot shows a person wearing clear plastic gloves cupping a handful of small, white synthetic wax pellets and allowing them to stream through their fingers.
Split-screen footage
A split-screen displays three separate close-up views of thousands of tiny white plastic pellets vibrating and shifting across sorting trays and conveyor beds during processing.

Francisco Saldivar - Awesome Quality & Unique Experience Leader
Always On Time Correct Presentation Secure Packaging
[Voiceover]
My name is Francisco Saldivar. I am the Quality and Customer Service Manager, and I am also the leader of the warehouse.
The most significant learning we have gained from Shell is the way we receive materials, as they are always on time, in the correct presentation, and in secure packaging.

Significant Growth in Sales
No Quality Complaints
Certified by NSF/ANSI 14
[Voiceover]
Number 1 a very significant growth in sales in the Mexican market.
Number 2, we have never received any quality complaints.
And number 3, I believe the most important one, is obtaining Sarawax certification in the NSF listing in the United States.
This demonstrates that Sarawax is a product safe for humans.
