They wanted to transition from metal to a polymer-based, two-component handle that would deliver: • scratch and chemical resistance • excellent mechanical properties • a grippy, soft-touch feel To support the transition, Victorinox sought our help based on its expertise in polymer science and ability to support product development and efficient manufacturing of the new two-component handles. Avient provided product development assistance and testing, and ultimately delivered customized materials that met strict requirements for durability. Beyond finding the best material combination—Bergamid™ nylon copolymer and GLS™ TPEs—our global presence and expertise across an array of specialty polymers and colorants, combined with local service and support, helped Victorinox to accelerate development work, streamline production and reach their design goals.

In 2016, Frog Legs set out to enhance their product further by reducing weight. Moreover, this innovative product effectively reduces vibrations not only in wheelchairs but also in various caster-equipped rolling equipment. The company’s dedication to creating superior products and partnership approach with clients like Frog Legs demonstrates its commitment to enhancing the lives of individuals with disabilities.
