Give your outdoor gear that extra grit so that it will
stay the course:
• Provide high-impact strength and
weatherability with materials like continuous
fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite
tapes and laminates
• Keep your exterior finishes gleaming with
material performance enhancements like
scratch and mar resistance and UV stable
additives
• Make your products safer with performance
additives that provide flame resistance and
antimicrobial properties
