Whether it be grips, strain reliefs, feet, bumpers, seals, buttons, soft touch features, or overmolding bonding capability, Santoprene TPVs are the material of choice for small kitchen appliances and floor care applications.
We also offer a series of Santoprene TPV grades which bond to a variety of engineered thermoplastics (ETPs) and their blends without the use of adhesives or mechanical interlock.
