Sustainable TPEs in cutter production
The use of sustainable TPEs in cutter manufacturing offers numerous benefits, in both performance and environmental impact. Cutters made from TPEs are more flexible and durable. Combining the advantages of plastic and rubber - they are suitable for a wide range of applications, including tool handles and grips.
- Optimised mechanical properties for exceptional strength, flexibility, and durability that is crucial for diverse industrial applications. This ensures our cutters withstand tough conditions and remain reliable over time.
- Non-sticky surface, preventing undesired adhesion to other surfaces for easy handling and processing, and especially for applications where cleanliness and ease of use matter. It provides a practical solution for both manufacturers and users.
- Colourability, which enables customers to customise material appearance to meet design needs, crucial in industries where branding and aesthetics drive consumer choices.
- Sustainable material that is in line with our commitment to environmentally friendly practices, ensuring that our compounds perform well and align with the growing demand for sustainable solutions in manufacturing.
- Recycled raw material content to cut waste, reduces reliance on virgin resources, and help customers meet sustainability goals, which ultimately benefits the environment.
