Hardness is defined as a materials’ resistance to indenture.
The materials’ hardness is a function of both thickness and product grade.
It is important to understand that the material does not really change the hardness.

Incorporating specialized materials into grips, handles, buttons, plungers, caps and closures can help reduce forceful exertion, repetitive motion, contact stress and vibration.
For soft orthotics, TPEs can form the entire orthotic part, be overmolded on top of a rigid sub-layer to give selective comfort and control or encase a viscous liquid material.
For example, the Lobie™ earbud accessory from Acousticlobe features soft, lightweight TPE material, and is designed to position earbuds next to the ear so users avoid the discomfort of inserting them into the ear canal.

Consider combining comfort with color and performance properties using enhanced soft touch GLS™ TPE materials for even better results.
A few grams of a TPE material can often make a major difference to improve the perceived quality or value of an item.
These enhanced products are typically priced higher than standard designs.
