Its size is simply being reduced to a scale that renders it effective in a second-life application. This not only reduces waste but also lowers greenhouse gas emissions and offers opportunities for carbon capture. Likewise, utilizing post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials as composite components can significantly reduce the carbon footprint* of those composites.

Soft TPEs can be used to maximize speaker performance by reducing housing vibrations where enclosure parts meet. Consider using integrated gaskets to reduce the ‘noise’ that vibrations often cause. This reduces manufacturing steps and the cost of assembly, which is no longer needed.
