The tub features a custom overmolded GLS Versaflex™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and non-toxic PolyOne OnColor™ colorants.
In addition, Karibu chose PolyOne’s non-toxic OnColor™ colorants, which are customizable and compatible with the GLS TPE material.
Because the TPE bonds well to the polypropylene (PP) substrate, the tub withstands repeated folding and unfolding.
