Most Dynaflex™, Versaflex™, Versalloy™ and OnFlex™ materials are suitable for
two-shot or insert molding with a polypropylene (PP) as the insert or substrate.
The adhesion of the new Versaflex® OM
6100 series is outstanding, with no modification of the substrate.

PolyOne GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers recently worked with one of the largest infant care brands in Japan to develop a new feeding set for infants and toddlers.
Using an advanced soft grip Versaflex™ TPE material in the bowl, cup and spoon, the manufacturer was able to meet critical food contact regulations in both Japan and China while simultaneously delivering an experience that reinforces their brand reputation.

Properly designed deep undercuts are possible with GLS overmold TPEs.
Versaflex
Most GLS styrenic TPEs (Dynaflex and some Versaflex) have fairly high mold shrinkage and cause the overmolding TPE to contract more than the substrate, which can result in warpage or cupping of the substrate part.
