So we’ve developed the ideal TPEs for your infant
care application, from materials that are durable and safe for baby contact to regulatory compliant grades and
soft-touch solutions
The food contact compliance statements are based on the composition of the TPE and cite any restrictions, limitations, food types, and/or
specific migration limitations (depending on the regulation).
Our GLS TPEs safely deliver on all of these requirements, while
also adding comfort and enhancing consumer appeal.
