Not only do these panels provide excellent FR
performance, they also offer lightweighting
and production efficiency benefits.
KEY BENEFITS
• Lightweight: Significantly lighter than
traditional materials such as wood, drywall,
and framed wall assemblies, offering a
lightweight yet durable solution for easier
transport and installation, while maintaining
structural integrity
• Durability: Resistant to rot, moisture,
chemicals, UV, and corrosion, ensuring long-
lasting performance
• Efficiency: Consolidated structural panel
reduces labor and assembly time, maintaining
structural integrity throughout the installation
process
• Versatility: Can replace gypsum and drywall
in wall construction, offering strong adhesive
bonding properties and paintable surfaces
• Material Consolidation: Integrates flame
retardant properties and eliminates the
need for additional sheets or coatings for
fireproofing, simplifying the building process
• Highly Customizable: Avient offers a wide
range of custom size configurations and panel
options, allowing builders to meet specific
project needs
• Sustainability: FR technology is not
halogenated or phosphorus-based, and is made
with benign ingredients at low concentrations,
making it an environmentally friendly option

To meet the manufacturer’s goals for the mouse grip,
a clear TPE overmolding material, GLS Versaflex™, was
formulated for improved ergonomics and comfort,
strong chemical resistance, and excellent bonding to
the ABS substrate.
It also boasts
excellent chemical resistance to common substances
like cosmetics and cleaners, as well as foods such as
olive oil and mustard.
It offers excellent
surface engineering properties such as low wear,
reduced friction, high lubricity, and no squeak.
