Until now, silicone has been the only material for white or light-colored phone cases that resists staining
when in contact with blue jeans.
Versaflex™ CE 3320-70 is the first of its kind and only blue jean stain resistant thermoplastic elastomer for
white and light-colored phone cases.

CREATIVE COLOR
Choose Your Color Wisely
Color choices have traditionally been limited for these materials because the high
temperature required to process them destroys many pigments that are used in engineering
thermoplastics.
Using pre-colored resin, where every pellet is precisely the right color
2.
Therefore, pre-colored
resin is highly recommended
