GLS™ TPEs - Injection Molding Guide GLS™ TPEs - Overmolding Guide Thermoplastic Elastomers: GLS™

GLS TPEs can be customized for various color effects, levels of opacity and different types of feel and texture. Unlike other materials, GLS TPEs are recyclable, which is becoming increasingly more important to all consumers.
