“Art of TPE-S compounding. Where innovation meets creativity.”

Our participation in Fakuma 2024, the benchmark event for the rubber and plastics industry, ended with outstanding results. Like every edition, the trade fair in Friedrichshafen proved to be a key crossroads for networking and innovation, giving us the opportunity to talk to leading industry experts and present our latest innovations.

We are thrilled to have welcomed a wide audience of customers, suppliers and potential partners, consolidating existing relationships and initiating promising new collaborations.

The exhibition also allowed us to gain insight into emerging market trends, confirming our commitment to developing increasingly efficient, sustainable and customised solutions.

This year, we wanted to push the boundaries of the traditional application of thermoplastic elastomers by creating an ambitious project that would enhance its extraordinary versatility. In collaboration with the acclaimed Italian architect and artist Paolo Nicolai, we transformed our fully recyclable TPE-S into real works of art.

This creative synergy allowed us to explore the material’s infinite expressive possibilities, demonstrating how thermoplastic elastomers can be moulded into unexpected and striking shapes. The sculptures created by Nicolai and previewed at the Fakuma captured the public’s attention, inspiring admiration for their originality and ability to combine aesthetics and sustainability.

The project is further evidence of our commitment to innovation and the search for environmentally friendly solutions. TPE-S, besides its complete recyclability, offers high technical performance and a wide range of applications. With this initiative, we wanted to show how thermoplastic elastomers can also be a leading material in the art world, opening up new creative and sustainable perspectives.
