Give your product the extra protection it needs to stand up to daily surface abrasion

Give your product the extra protection it needs to stand up to daily surface abrasion

Bonded formulations can improve cut-through and abrasion resistance plus mechanical toughness

Beyond providing impact protection performance, these specially designed TPEs enable designers, engineers, and product managers to improve abrasion resistance, design thinner cases, and tell a new story for their phone case design.

The new Dyneema® Woven Composites double down on the core durability, strength, abrasion resistance, and dimensional stability of Dyneema® fiber.

In the past, excellent aesthetics often meant compromising processing speed and performance attributes, such as abrasion resistance, stain resistance, and cycle times.
