THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS

Elasticity and resilience, toughness and recovery, softness and color ability… our Thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) solutions enable the creating of such solutions. The structure of these materials enable designing products that incorporate properties such as high resilience, flexibility, low compression set, abrasion resistance, water and chemical resistance, while additionally being fully recyclable.

TPV

Our portfolio includes a wide range of thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPV): Santoprene® TPV from Celanese and Opti-Pren™ TPV from Customized Compound Solutions (CCS). These are high-performance elastomers, which offer manufacturing flexibility, ease of processing and durability. They are used in diverse applications in automotive, industrial and consumer industries.

TPU

We distribute thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) – Estane® TPU from Lubrizol, which is a highly functional elastomer with unique properties that offers both superior performance for industrial and consumer applications and processing flexibility. Our TPU portfolio entails materials for all conventional plastic conversion processes as well as for adhesive solutions.

TPC

We distribute thermoplastic polyester elastomer (TPC) – Hytrel® TPC from Celanese, which is a multipurpose high-performance thermoplastic elastomer known for its exceptional combination of strength, flexibility, durability and for its sustainability features. This innovative material is widely used in various industries, including automotive, consumer goods, industrial, and more. Key characteristics of Hytrel® TPC include: excellent mechanical properties; chemical resistance, wide temperature range, low compression set, easy processing, recyclability and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

TPE

We supply soft, unfilled or black, specialty thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) in natural color. They are olefin based and completely recyclable, particularly suitable in applications where oil exudation and resistance to acids are an issue.

TPO

We provide flexible, colorable and specialty thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) – Opti-Flex™ TPO from CCS. Our TPO product portfolio offers valuable properties such as high clarity and low oil content. Furthermore Opti-Flex TPOs are styrene and halogen free and compliant with food contact legislations and thus available for wide variety of applications.
