Overmolding with TPEs gives consumers a better grip
However, the original TPE that the company selected caused issues during 2K molding.
For this manufacturer, another appealing aspect of working with this material was Avient’s dedicated TPE production line in Spain, which is used solely to manufacture TPEs for overmolding applications.

Custom TPE addresses critical issues, delivers $100,000 in annual savings
Testing showed that this TPE would not stick to the machinery or itself.
Armed with a new specialty TPE solution, the medical manufacturer handled gasket adhesion with a material that outperformed that not only silicone, but also conventional TPEs.
