CASE STUDY: POLYSTRAND™ THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES
THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES REDUCE WEIGHT, ADD
STRENGTH TO INDUSTRY-FIRST SNOWBOARD BINDINGS
Discover how Polystrand™ continuous fiber
reinforced thermoplastics can add lightweight
strength and durability to your application.
Incorporating composite materials in snowboard
bindings is not a new concept.
THE IMPACT
The injection-overmolded Polystrand composite
construction in Rome’s Black Label binding is the first of
its kind in the industry.

Those who also want a low-maintenance space often select vinyl or wood-plastic composites.
These new materials are available in a range of gloss levels and use temperatures, and can be used to produce capstock for vinyl, cellular vinyl, or wood-plastic composite profiles, or solid profiles and sheet if needed.
PolyOne’s extensive experience in exterior applications combined with Geon Bold weathering data from multiple geographic regions provides customers with the necessary support and confidence during the selection process.

The benefits
of using long fiber thermoplastic (LFT) composites
in these automotive applications to achieve these
objectives are well documented.
Furthermore,
LFT composites are injection-moldable, providing a
highly repeatable process that increases production
efficiency and reduces scrap.
Our long fiber composites offer an
excellent opportunity for automotive aftermarket
designers to enhance their components’
performance, aesthetics, and sustainability.
