The excellent plasticity of TPE provides designers with a wide range of opportunities to lead the trend with your new product, enhance the added value of the product, and enhance market advantages. Due to its popularity among consumers, the application of dual materials has become a major trend in product design in recent years. International famous brands have tried their best to use shell molds to wrap their products, and to apply a comfortable layer of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to high-end handmade tool handles, toys, automotive and motorcycle accessories, and electronic products, making their products more contemporary and developing towards a higher price line.
In recent years, with the development of industrial materials that comply with REACH, ROHS, FDA, ASTM, and EN71 specifications, safety, environmental protection, and pollution-free standards, in addition to achieving high-performance, refined, and specialized products, as well as complying with the trend of high efficiency, energy conservation, and green environmental protection, TPE materials from Hong Kong Hengsu International Holdings Limited can meet your requirements in this regard. TPE is non-toxic and low pollution, The excellent performance of recyclable PVC gradually replaces the import restrictions on PVC materials in European countries in recent years, and international famous brands are also increasing their awareness of environmental protection, gradually switching their products from original PVC or traditional rubber products to TPE materials, leading TPE to enter a rapid development stage in various industrial fields.
Processing advantages of TPE
1) General plastic processing methods can be used for processing and forming - injection forming, extrusion forming, blowing forming, compression forming, etc.
2) The forming cycle is short, and there is no need for sulfur addition and vulcanization operations.
3) By mixing with different formulas, the surface texture and physical properties of the material can be changed, and suitable materials can be formulated according to different applications.
4) The waste and overflow of products during the processing can be recycled to reduce production costs and more in line with environmental principles.
