Specifically, these additives have been proven to be effective inhibiting E. coli and MRSA across these resins: • TPE/TPU • PET • HDPE • ABS • POM • PP • PC Custom formulations can be validated for various resin types, and under specific processing conditions, at an independent testing lab to ensure results in commercialization.

HOW GLS TPES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN INFANT CARE APPLICATIONS • Safe to Use – Made without bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, or heavy metals; select grades compliant with FDA, REACH and China GB4806 • Durable – Resists bites and tears; many are tested and safe to use in microwaves and dishwashers • Comfortable – Can be overmolded to provide a soft touch grip and customized to specific comfort requirements including vibration and noise reduction • Easy to Process – Can be injection molded and overmolded right onto a substrate including PP, ABS, etc. • Better Quality Control – Eliminate the need for many secondary operations required for other materials so that results are controlled and consistent To learn more about GLS TPEs for infant care, contact Avient at +1.844.4AVIENT.
