grades compliant with FDA, EU10/2011
and China GB4806
• Resists bites and tears; many are tested
and safe to use in microwaves and
dishwashers
• Can be overmolded to provide a soft
touch grip and customized to specific
comfort requirements including
vibration and noise reduction
• Can be injection molded and
overmolded right onto a substrate
including PP, ABS, etc
Eliminate the need for many
secondary operations required for
other materials so that results are
controlled and consistent
