Thermoplastic elastomer films

Our TPE films can be found in a large number of industrial applications, e.g. automobile, building or textile industry. Their main benefit is that they combine physical-mechanical, chemical and thermal properties with rational processing technology for thermoplastics. Combining Textiles with TPE films are enhancing the performance of the fabrics.

Applications

TPE films are suited for a large number of applications in the

  • Automotive industry: insulation components, roof lining, door components, seats etc.
  • Building industry: roof underlining sheets, pipe refurbishment
  • Medical industry: health mattresses, Plaster films, colostomy bags etc.
  • Leisure and textile industry: clothing, football interiors or exteriors, air cushions in sports shoes

Features

  • High mechanical stability (resistant to puncture)
  • High abrasion resistance
  • Ductile and elastic
  • Non-skin irritant
  • Temperature and weather resistant
  • Good resistance to oil, lubricants and many solvents
  • Free from solvents and softeners
  • Media-tight
  • High water-vapor impermeability

Processing

Our highly elastic elastomer films can easily be processed and well treated by means of deep drawing and thermoforming; they are well suited for thermal of flame lamination, they can be welded using any of the usual methods, glued, printed and back-foamed.
