Both paperboard and multilayer polymers restrict
design freedom, so the final packaging is often less
than ergonomic.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/resources/Marine%2520Panels%2520Application%2520Bulletin.pdf
Our composite panels are custom engineered
by varying core thicknesses to increase or
decrease stiffness; by varying core materials
(including end-grain balsa, foam or engineered
woods) to increase or decrease weight; by
varying fiber to modify the stiffness-to-weight
ratio; and by varying the base polymer to
increase or decrease strength

The problem is that most polymer device housings are not able to resist repeated exposure to the chemicals
involved in disinfection without cracking, crazing, or otherwise losing structural integrity.

Our collaborative process affords you
flexibility in polymer design and access to a range of world-class services.
