Available in North America, injection-moldable reSound™ REC TPEs utilize 9-83% recycled content, and both grades can be overmolded onto polypropylene (PP).
PCR grades are formulated with different types of recycled content: ocean plastics; food packaging from a variety of sources (including content that received a No Objection Letter from the U.S.
These TPE grades, formulated for consumer applications, can be used in personal care products, lawn and garden tools, outdoor goods, office supplies, footwear, and houseware durables.

New reSound OM grades address both goals by leveraging a significant amount of renewable content without compromising the material’s properties.”
All grades are formulated for durability, delivering property retention and UV resistance comparable to traditional TPEs.
In addition, the new grades feature easy colorability, a major requirement for applications such as cosmetics packaging, personal care products, and consumer electronics.
