The manufacturer began working with Avient to find a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) solution to meet its dual requirements.
Currently, the company is producing 800,000 housings annually using the specialty TPE material.
Adding to the overall value of the solution, the TPE yields significantly less scrap than the previously used AES material.

MANNHEIM, Germany – PolyOne unveiled new OnFlex™ LO thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) today at the VDI Plastics in Automotive Engineering Conference (Stand 83A).
While our existing TPEs lead the industry in low emissions performance, we continue to innovate and anticipate future demands and stricter requirements.
PolyOne tested OnFlex LO TPE against its existing TPEs according to VDA 278 standard for VOCs and fog, and VDA 270 standard for odor.
