Join us for our LIVE webinar "New Thermoplastic Solutions for Dynamic Automotive Weather Seals."

The introduction of new Santoprene TPV solutions are proving to be a game changer for manufacturers of dynamic weather seals in the automotive industry. The design of these weather seals can now shift from the complex and heavy aluminum/thermoset EPDM construct that has been used for years to a lighter, more easily manufactured and recycled solution. It also enables OEMs to switch to 100% thermoplastic, fully recyclable designs for dynamic weather seals, contributing to a major shift to more sustainable vehicle design. Join this webinar to learn more from our expert weather seal team. Importantly, total costs also are reduced when switching to the more recyclable, lighter TPV solution.

Register now to learn more about these developments and to ask questions of our subject-matter experts, Bernd and Anthony.
