We have divested more cyclical, less specialized businesses and made significant investments in innovation, composites and sustainable solutions.  Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility

These solutions can support the strength and elasticity of the fabric for superior shape recovery of up to 99% after 300% elongation over 1 minute. Compared to TPU adhesive films and traditional glue, these new TPE solutions can deliver a seamless and strong adhesion to polyester and nylon fabrics, enabiling a uniform thickness and overall appearance for an athletic, close-fitting, and non-bruising finish. All products passed the OEKO-TEX® 100-2 standard, do not include plasticizers, and contain lower VOCs than traditional adhesive solutions.
