GUIDED BY MATERIAL TECHNOLOGIES
Transparent Performance Unsurpassed.
As long as we’re redefining the performance limits of this technology, we figured we’d go ahead and redefine the
acronym, too.
HIGH TRANSPARENCY TPU
Renewable-sourced material delivers high bio content (ranging from approximately 30%–70%*), high transparency, and no sacrifice in performance compared to traditional petroleum-based TPU.
