Santoprene® TPV – The sustainable elastomeric material solution from Celanese
Oliver Kloth, Strategic Marketing Manager at Celanese will be present at Bjørn Thorsen stand to meet with customers and help them find the best TPV solution for their challenges. He will also join the Plastteknik speakers to deliver a presentation on Santoprene® TPV – The sustainable elastomeric material solution on the 11th of May, at 10:40.
Santoprene® TPV has a legacy of offering sustainability benefits that stretches back over 40 years. It is acknowledged as a highly effective rubber replacement in many elastomeric applications and has replaced carbon intensive and hard-to-recycle thermoset rubber because it offers a more sustainable solution. Now, the recently introduced Santoprene® TPV ECO-R platform is the next logical step to enabling further carbon footprint reductions. Among many new developments, the new Santoprene® TPV 101-87 ECO-R grade with a minimum of 25% post-consumer recycling (PCR) content is one of the latest innovations from Celanese, which we encourage customers to enquire about!
