SO.F.TER. Thermoplastic Elastomers


“Thermoplastic elastomers” (TPE) identifies a range of polymer compounds which have some of the properties of rubber (softness, elastic recovery, flexibility) but unlike rubber, they do have the ability to be re-melted like any other thermoplastic material.

This gives these products versatility, and offers the designer many possibilities and solutions to problems, including replacement of thermoset rubber.

TPE available from So.F.Ter. operations is unrivalled in the industry, giving you the customer, the possibility of matching your requirements to the best available TPE type.

Our technical and production centres located in Italy are capable of manufacturing a wide range of formulations either based on a standard range, or entirely customised. Our short delivery times and reliability give you advantages in speed to your customer, and in reduced inventory.

 

As with our other ranges of polymer compounds, we offer local technical support to help you choose the correct material, and successfully use it in your product. Of course, being part of an international group gives the ability to support you wherever you need us.
