GLS soft TPEs can be overmolded onto rigid plastic, metal, or other substrates using a variety of techniques, including:
Regrind is not an option for many two-material applications.
Higher levels of regrind are tolerated in black materials.

https://www.avient.com/knowledge-base/article/processing-styrenic-block-copolymer-tpes-gls
Styrenic block copolymer (SBC) elastomers are some of the most versatile and easily processed materials in the plastics industry.
Most plastics exhibit this characteristic to some extent, but the effects on SEBS/SEPS and SBS/SIS TPEs are more pronounced.
