Versaflex™ CE 3320-70 Silicone
HOW BLUE JEAN STAIN RESISTANT TPES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
FOR WHITE AND LIGHT-COLORED PHONE CASES
Achieve blue jean stain resistance – Versaflex CE
3320-70 is the first thermoplastic elastomer able
to keep white and light-colored phone cases from
staining when in contact with blue jeans.
Increase speed to market – Avient TPEs have
a shorter lead time than silicone and can be
processed quickly on high speed injection
molding equipment.
Enhance supply chain flexibility – Unlike silicone,
which is limited by a complex silica mining supply
chain and manufactured in silicone-only factories,
Avient TPEs can be processed by any injection
molding manufacturer.
