This innovative solution helped Resol to win two international awards recognizing the inventive design and use of engineering thermoplastics. Working with PolyOne to transition from metal to plastic helped Resol increase its design options, lower overall weight and reduce manufacturing complexity, PolyOne was also able to help Resol achieve excellent aesthetics with molded-in color while eliminating the cost and hassles of painting.

Recently completed applications on display will include a paint replacement project for one of the world’s largest manufacturers of appliances, and a consumer product for a leading global supermarket chain.  OnFlex™ LO Low VOC Thermoplastic Elastomers: Easily processed TPEs that help manufacturers meet strict Vehicle Interior Air Quality (VIAQ) standards 

Advanced metallic colorants able to create brilliant surfaces without paint Low VOC / FOG and odor thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), which help meet new vehicle interior air quality (VIAQ) standards

There’s a way to check all of these boxes at once by adding a soft-touch, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) grip. Specific TPE colors or textures can serve as a strategic branding tool and can replace expensive secondary painting or adhesion operations to achieve a similar look.

You may see us use both terms, MSDS and SDS, as GHS becomes more familiar in all of our global market. MAGNAPRINT DIGITAL HYBRID WHITE G2 MAGNAPRINT DIGITAL HYBRID MATTE CLEAR G2
