Consider combining comfort with color
and performance properties using enhanced soft
touch GLS™ TPE materials for even better results.
COLOR: TPEs can be customized with bright
colors and special effects such as glimmers,
sparkles and pearlescents, as well as shine levels
such as eye-catching high gloss, which conveys
a high-tech, high-fashion aesthetic.
TPEs play an important role in this
evolution by enabling designers to add ergonomic
grips in appealing textures and colors.

Once connected, the CMG
controller tracks the input signal
from the host machine and allows
the FlexCart to accurately meter
the required color or additive
for the process.
The reservoir cassette is a key
operating element of the FlexCart
unit, allowing the user to quickly
changeover colors in a matter of
minutes.
The packaging is designed to
effectively contain and transport Avient liquid
colors and additives.
