This region of the world maintains a high sensitivity to preserving nature and the environment, and the producer’s desire to look for alternative material solutions not yet required by law follows this cultural tendency. THE IMPACT By replacing traditional sealing materials with non- halogenated OnFlex S HF TPE, Schneider-Electric NB (Strömfors) was able to offer its customers several significant benefits: • For flexibility in processing, OnFlex S HF TPEs can be supplied in either natural or pre-colored grades. Natural grades can be colored during processing with compatible products from Avient’s OnColor™ color concentrate line. • The non-halogenated solution has a density 0.4 g/cm3 less than a traditional halogenated material, and this density advantage makes it price competitive with the traditional solution. • High-flow properties of OnFlex S HF TPE allow the gaskets to be overmolded in multi-cavity tools (up to 12 cavities per tool).

These tapes and laminates combined high strength, unidirectional fibers and engineered thermoplastic resins to help reduce weight while maintaining exceptional strength and impact resistance. The campaign was designed to engage people in local impact in order to have a global impact.

Rigid substrates include polypropylene(PP), polyethylene (PE), amorphous polar plastics such as polycarbonate (PC), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polystyrene (PS), high impact polystyrene(HIPS), polyphenylene oxide (PPO), glycol modified polyethylene terephthalate (PETG), Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), semicrystalline polar plastics such as polyester (PET, PBT) and Polyamide (Nylon 6, Nylon 66). Depending on the wall thickness of the elastomer and the substrate, the production rate can be very high. They include amorphous polymers such as polystyrene (PS), High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS), Polycarbonate (PC), Acetal (POM), PC/ABS, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), Polyphenylene oxide (PPO), Noryl® (a miscible blend of PS and PPO), and PC/PETG.

We expect momentum from our high profit portfolios in defense and healthcare markets, along with disciplined cost controls and productivity initiatives, to contribute to continued margin expansion over the prior year.” We still expect minimal direct impact from tariffs as we primarily source raw materials and manufacture our products locally in the regions that we serve. By intersecting our broad portfolio of technologies with the product roadmaps of our customers, we help create differentiated and high-performance products that make the world better and more sustainable.

This translates to 4% adjusted EPS growth, excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange. While we anticipate weakness in consumer and transportation end markets, we see opportunities for growth in our largest end market, packaging, as well as strength in our high profit portfolios in defense and healthcare. By intersecting our broad portfolio of technologies with the product roadmaps of our customers, we help create differentiated and high-performance products that make the world better and more sustainable.
