Thermoplastic elastomers

Soft material or material with special surface properties, used in toys, handtools, cables, automotive and many other applications where soft material is used and can be processed as plastics.

We offer a wide range of TPE thermoplastic elastomers, polymers that combine the properties of rubbers (elastomers) and thermoplastics. Thermoplastic elastomers are soft, flexible and elastic behaving like rubber but can be processed, melted and reshaped like plastics.

Key features of thermoplastic elastomers:

• Elastic – stretch and return to shape like rubber.
• Processing – can be injection molded, extruded, or recycled like plastics.
• No vulcanization needed (unlike traditional rubber)
• Versatile – can be tailored by formulation.
