Versaflex™ TF Adhesive Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs)
for Textile Fabrics
As consumers are becoming more health-
conscious, there’s a steady increase in the demand
for functional, lightweight, and comfortable fitness
clothing that is also visually appealing.
Compared to
TPU adhesive films and traditional glue, these new
TPE solutions can deliver a seamless and strong
adhesion to polyester and nylon fabrics, enabiling
a uniform thickness and overall appearance for an
athletic, close-fitting, and non-bruising finish.
Versaflex TF Adhesive TPEs offer easy processing
and shaping, and can also be custom-colored
and cost-efficiently laser-cut.

reSound™ REC Recycled Content TPEs – AF 7210 Series
Recycled TPEs for Automotive Interiors
Sustainability continues to be a key driver in the
automotive industry.
They provide comparable performance to virgin
TPEs, with good UV stability and meet vehicle
interior air quality (VIAQ) standards for odor
and fogging.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Contains 51–59% recycled content, with a
minimum of 37% from PCR sources, including
closed-loop feedstock
• Provides comparable performance to virgin
TPEs
- Good UV stability
- Meets VIAQ standards for odor and fogging
• Supports compliance with the ELV Directive
• Provides a more sustainable alternative to
virgin TPE grades and supports a reduction in
product carbon footprint (PCF)
• Can be injection molded and overmolded
onto PP
KEY APPLICATIONS
The reSound REC TPEs – AF 7210 series has
been developed for use in automotive interior
applications such as cup holder mats, phone
charging mats, peddle covers, boot/trunk lining,
HVAC flaps and other center console parts.
