MATERIALS FOR

GP Consumer & Industry Applications 

Tough as nails or flexible and subtle.  We love to formulate and our portfolio shows it!  GP (general purpose) Industrial applications include seals, gaskets, profiles, tubes, and hoses.  Consumer applications move from fashion footwear, floor mats, and sports equipment to soft-touch grips on tool handles.  Sheet extrusion materials flow smooth as silk while our color concentrates easily blend during processing, providing a fantastic variety of vivid colors.

What are you making?

Choose from our proven portfolio or ask us to create a material with your specific performance requirements.

Innovation starts with understanding what you’re making.  For decades we’ve worked alongside customers to create compounds that perform in real-world conditions across a wide range of uses. Whether it’s durable seals, gaskets, hoses, and tubing for industrial settings, or materials for fashion footwear, floor mats, sports gear, and soft-touch over-mold products -- our PVC, CPVC, and TPE compounds are built to match your performance expectations.  As your products and processes evolve, we’re right there with you—adapting, improving, and delivering the materials you need to stay ahead.
