KRAIBURG TPE's advanced THERMOLAST® K selected TPE series delivers exceptional performance, safety, and reliability. Its innovative material solutions drive progress in skincare technology, elevating users' experiences in facial cleansing and skincare.

 

THERMOLAST® K Key Material Advantages

  • Non-Sticky Surface: Simplifies the cleaning process and effectively prevents dirt, grease, and residual makeup from sticking to the facial cleanser device. This helps maintain hygiene and cleanliness.
  • Soft, Velvety Feel: A facial cleansing device needs to be gentle on the skin to reduce the risk of skin irritation, discomfort, and allergies.
  • Elasticity: The material's easy processibility and elasticity allow the design of facial cleansing devices to adapt to facial contours and maintain a stable shape and structure over extended periods of use.
  • Waterproof Performance: Effectively prevents moisture from entering the cleansing device's interior, reducing the risk of damage and malfunction from water corrosion while improving the product's stability and dependability.
  • Chemical Resistance: Resistant to some common chemicals, such as detergents, thereby maintaining the appearance and performance of the cleansing device without damage while improving product durability.
  • In-process Recycling Possible: Waste generated during the production process can be recycled and reused, reducing material waste and costs, and conserving resources.


Ideal Applications 
The selected THERMOLAST® K TPE series is ideal for functional and design elements, essence skincare instrument handle and grip, soft touch surface (facial massage devices thumb wheels, microcurrent beauty device push buttons, facial steamer switches), household articles, cosmetic packaging, packaging for food, and packaging for care products.
