This is especially true for public, high-touch surfaces that are being wiped or sprayed at increasing rates. Available in unfilled, impact-modified, and flame-retardant grades, these formulations deliver performance that is comparable to PC blends and well suited to high-touch applications, such as point-of-sale devices.

Many product designers are utilizing TPEs to add a “soft touch” to a rigid material. Molding Soft TPEs (≤ 20 Shore A) Soft GLS TPEs have very low viscosity (high flow); thus they require minimal injection pressure. Most of the GLS soft TPEs are either water-clear or translucent.
