TPE
TPE is a flexible plastic for contact and damping parts. The polyolefin grade combines elastic behaviour with a smooth, matt surface.
Typical applications
Soft contact surfaces, cushioning pads, grips and custom-shaped seal concepts.
Why TPE?
TPE offers a pleasantly soft feel and a smooth, matt surface. It suits parts that need to conform, yield or cushion contact with other components.
