End Market
The importance of sustainability is not limited by geography or
end market.
Through our design expertise and materials science, we help our customers
reduce material usage, enable recyclability or recycle content, and improve physical performance.
We enable a lower carbon footprint through lower carbon footprint technologies,
lightweighting & design, improved recyclability, increased recycle content, and bio-derived solutions.

reSound™ REC Recycled Content TPEs – AF 7210 Series
Recycled TPEs for Automotive Interiors
Sustainability continues to be a key driver in the
automotive industry.
Of that recycled content, a
minimum of 25% (6.25% overall) must come from
circular or closed-loop feedstock (from within the
automotive industry).
Developed in response to the increased need
for recycled materials the AF 7210 series of
reSound™ REC TPEs incorporates a minimum of
51% recycled content, 37% from post-consumer
recycled (PCR) sources, including closed-loop
feedstock.
