KRAIBURG TPE will participate in Interplas 2026 under its own colors for the first time. Together with its long-standing sales partner Abbey Polymers, KRAIBURG TPE will exhibit at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham, UK, from June 2 to 4.

This underscores the company’s long-term commitment to the British market. Following the founding of KRAIBURG TPE UK Ltd. in June 2024, this is another strategic step toward expanding the company’s own presence in the United Kingdom in a targeted manner.

In addition to presenting its own product range, KRAIBURG TPE UK will set two other priorities for its appearance at the fair – recycling-based product range for the automotive market and the new FR3 series.

TPE with recycled content for automotive market

Combining a broad range of applications with a recycling content of up to 77%, these recycling content TPEs have been specially tailored to the requirements of the automotive market and cover the whole hardness range from 20 to 95 Shore A.

They are suitable for various interior and exterior applications, as well as in automotive powertrains.

New FR3 series

The second highlight will be the new FR3 series. These compounds meet stringent fire safety requirements in their intended applications – such as those specified in the EN 45545-2 European Railway Standard for Fire Safety.

Apart from being specifically suitable for fire protection, FR3-TPEs have additional material-specific characteristics that make them particularly suitable for applications in environments with high safety requirements. These include significantly optimized compression set values for halogen-free and flame-retardant TPEs.
