KRAIBURG TPE is driving innovation in automotive interior design with its thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) and customized solutions.

 

As vehicle cabins become more intelligent and design-centric, KRAIBURG TPE’s Light Effect TPE series offers advanced material solutions that seamlessly combine functionality with aesthetics.

KRAIBURG TPE’s thermoplastic elastomers drives innovations in automotive interior design.

 

High performance Light Effect TPE

 

With a low density of 0.89 g/cm³ and a Shore A hardness of 60, these compounds deliver excellent moldability, flowability, and compatibility with multi-component injection molding, enabling efficient, high-precision production.

 

Their robust mechanical properties, including a tensile strength of 10 MPa and elongation up to 700%, make them ideal for flexible, high-performance components such as sealing profiles, light guides, haptic surfaces, and soft-touch interior parts.

 

Additionally, their high light transmissibility supports sophisticated ambient and backlit lighting designs in dashboards, door trims, and center consoles, empowering automotive designers to create immersive and interactive in-cabin experiences.

 

Low emission TPE for safer, more comfortable cabins

 

Beyond aesthetics, Light Effect TPE compounds are halogen-free and flame-retardant, complying with IEC 61249-2-21, and offer excellent UV and heat resistance, maintaining performance even under prolonged exposure and temperatures up to 85°C.

 

They meet strict VOC and fogging regulations (VDA 278, VDA 270), improving in-cabin air quality and reducing odor for a healthier environment.

 

Designed to support vehicle lightweighting, they help improve EV energy efficiency and range, while their vibration-damping properties minimize road and engine noise, enhancing overall driving comfort.
