Construction

Dryflex thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are a cost-effective replacement for conventional thermoset rubbers, with good weatherability and UV stability they deliver long service life and extra functionality to construction products. Dryflex TPE compounds offer weight reduction, recyclability and ease of processing.

Applications include:

Extruded glazing gaskets, moulded glazing seals, pipe seals, ladder feet, water stops, blown compounds for low density seals,

Features:

  RAL GZ 716/1 – black and grey (outdoor as well as indoor seals)
  BS 7412:1991 Class A (static) and B (dynamic) – black and white
