KRAIBURG TPE®
It is a global leader in the field of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) materials and is actively making major breakthroughs in automotive interior design applications. The material could change the way car interiors are designed and manufactured, combining functionality and aesthetics.
The excellent performance and versatility of thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) have made them popular among automotive designers, especially in the area of automotive pulley controls, which are an important component of vehicle control panels. KRAIBURG TPE®
The soft-touch surface of the AD1/AP series provides a comfortable user experience, making it the material solution of choicefor automotive puller applications.
This TPE material can exhibit excellent encapsulation properties with polar thermoplastic materials such as ABS, PC and PC/ABS through multi-component injection molding, achieving flexibility in product design and enhancing sealing properties. Additionally, they are UV resistant, maintaining color stability and overall functionality over time.
In addition to these features, KRAIBURG TPE
The automotive interior TPE materials also meet strict industry requirements. They are formulated to resist UV radiation while meeting interior OEM requirements for emissions, fogging and odor control. In addition, the series is REACH compliant
SVHC and RoHS regulations ensure compliance with European standards for restricted chemical substances or hazardous substances.
KRAIBURG TPE®
The concept of sustainable development is reflected in the recycling capabilities of these TPE materials. Manufacturers can recycle excess or leftover materials, contributing to resource conservation and environmentally friendly production of puller controls.
In addition to the AD1/AP series, KRAIBURG TPE
Specially developed TPE compounds are also available to meet the unique specifications of automobile manufacturers. This customization ensures that every automotive interior component meets the highest performance and design standards.
