Why Polyurethane?• Polyurethane is polymer material that is
popular in many applications for its:– Toughness– Abrasion Resistance– Cut and Tear Resistance– Ease of Processing– Versatility

Versatility• Polyurethane is extremely versatile and
can be formulated a number of ways.
• Hardness, size, chemical resistance and shape can all be formulated differently, depending on the application.
• There are a number of things to consider when choosing the right polyurethane formulation.
