• Fiber reinforcement percentage (ranging from 20–70% fiber content, by weight) • Additive technologies (color, UV enhancement, flame retardancy, heat stabilization, etc.)

They also add important characteristics, such as SWELLCOAT® water-blocking, water repellence, adhe- sion, color, and wear and UV-resistance to these and many other applications.

• Treat employees with respect and refrain from harassing or discriminating against individuals based on race, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, color, religion, national origin, disability, genetic information, protected veteran’s status, or other legally protected classifications. • Responsibly source Tantalum, Tin, Tungsten and Gold or their derivatives (3TG metals).
