About TPE 

TPE – High-Performance Thermoplastic Elastomer 

Advanced Material for Versatile Applications 

TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) is a high-performance material that combines the elastic properties of rubber with the processability of thermoplastics. It is widely used in various industries due to its flexibility, durability, and excellent mechanical properties. 

 

Key Properties 

 

• Elasticity & Flexibility: Provides rubber-like elasticity while maintaining thermoplastic processability. 

• Durability: High resistance to wear, tear, and environmental influences. 

• Easy Processing: Can be molded, extruded, and processed efficiently with conventional thermoplastic techniques. 

• Chemical Resistance: Offers excellent resistance to oils, chemicals, and UV exposure. 

• Recyclability: Eco-friendly material that can be reused and processed multiple times. 

 

TPEs are widely used in industries such as: 

 

Automotive  

Found in seals, gaskets, interior components, vibration dampeners, cable insulation, and under-the-hood parts 

TPE is commonly used in applications such as automotive components,

medical devices, consumer goods,

and industrial seals, making it a highly versatile material for modern manufacturing. 

 

 

 

Agriculture  

Used in irrigation systems, seals, protective coatings, and animal care products. 

 

Consumer Goods  

Applied in soft-touch grips, toys, footwear, wearables, household items, and appliance components.

 

 

 

Food Packaging  

Utilized in sealing rings, flexible lids, bottle caps, grip­enhanced packaging, and food-safe tubing. 

 

 

Construction  

Used for window/door seals, roofing membranes, expansion joints, pipe fittings, and tool grips.

 

 

 

Industrial Applications  

Found in machine parts, hoses, vibration dampeners, protective coverings, and conveyor belts.
