design for switches, buttons, automotive handles tooth brushes, power tools,
etc. will require a different tactile experience from the same material

• Range of hardness Shore 1OA to 60D allowing designers to select materials below 45A, not available with other materials
• Over-moulding - 2-shot moulding - multi-layer blowmoulding capability for design freedom and cost effective manufacture
