reSound™ OM Thermoplastic Elastomers
Bio-based TPEs Deliver on Performance
Designed to support sustainability goals, the
reSound OM TPE formulations utilize between
40 and 50 percent bio-renewable content derived
from sugarcane and offer hardness levels and
property retention comparable to traditional
petroleum-based TPEs.
Plus, with an opaque natural color, all reSound OM
materials are easily colorable, a major requirement
for applications such as cosmetics packaging,
personal care products, household appliances,
and consumer electronics.
