BLOOM TPE by Algix – BLOOM’S NEWEST MATERIAL INNOVATION, PROVIDING THE PERFORMANCE YOU EXPECT FROM TRADITIONAL THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS (TPE), NOW WITH POSITIVE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS.
TPEs utilizing Bloom’s algae technology deliver striking performance values, which make them excellent replacements for conventional thermoplastic elastomers.
Algae’s natural thermoplastic qualities allow BLOOM TPE to meet, and in some cases exceed performance characteristics of conventional TPE.
APPLICATIONS
BLOOM TPE is an algae-blended resin containing a higher percentage of algae biomass and bio-based additives than ever before. BLOOM TPE has a renewable content of at least 45%, offsetting a significant portion of traditional petroleum-based TPE required for footwear manufacturing. For even greater impact, BLOOM TPE can be mixed with Rise to increase compression set performance and overall algae biomass content. BLOOM TPE is the ideal solution for insoles, midsoles, yoga mats, and many of your footwear and sporting goods needs.
