DEFLEXION™ technology offers significant protection while offering the
designer many creative choices.
The TP-Range combines the properties of silicones with thermoplastics to
give designers unique impact protection materials with high levels of
protection. The base technology is available as flat sheets in two formats –
either with holes for maximized airflow or as a solid sheet. The tremendous
versatility of the technology enables different surface effects, allowing the
impact protection system to have the right look and feel for targeted
applications.
The TP-Range is well suited for body armor applications in sports and sport
accessories, and for use in protective cases and sleeves for sensitive
equipment and electronics such as laptop computers, cell phones and cameras.
Other possible applications include personal protective equipment, footwear,
and luggage.
