CASE STUDY: POLYSTRAND™ CONTINUOUS FIBER THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES Challe nge Accepted. The tripod designers consulted with the advanced composite product experts at Avient, and trialed several formulations of Polystrand™ continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites. The thermoplastic polymer base resin used also enables recyclability to support the company’s sustainability goals.

Soft-touch TPEs make it happen, letting you improve the grip of SUP paddle t-handles, for example, or cushion kayak seats and thigh braces. Blisters are a thing of the past when gripping a soft-touch TPE.
