Exploring the performance of various TPE types
Traditional TPE types are made by combining a hard material with a soft material, either chemically or by a machine.
The adaptability of TPEs makes them useful across industries and applications, but it is important to consider all factors in order to properly determine if a TPE is the best fit and select the right formulation for your application.

Explore the design options & challenges of TPEs with sustainable content
TPEs can incorporate sustainable content in two ways: using either recycled or bio-based content in the formulations.
Uncolored TPEs are naturally dark (typically in gray or brown), based on assorted colors from recycle streams
