Opti-Soft™ TPE 4813-45D
Opti-Soft TPE 4813-45D is a natural, easy colorable specialty thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) with high tensile properties, abrasion resistance and tear strength. It delivers superior surface appearance and can be processed on conventional equipment within a wide processing window. This grade is polyolefin-based, fully recyclable and suitable for extrusion or injection molding.
Key Features:
- High tensile strength
- Excellent abrasion resistance
- High tear strength
- Superior part surface appearance
- Shore D hardness: 45
- Density: 0.89 g/cm³
Processing Form:
- Extrusion

Opti-Soft is Designed with Circularity in Mind
Recyclable
As a thermoplastic elastomer, Opti-Soft TPE can be reprocessed and reused during production, reducing material waste in manufacturing. This makes it suitable for closed-loop production systems when carefully managed.
Efficient Material Use
The lightweight and low-density properties of Opti-Soft TPE contribute to material efficiency, requiring less raw material for the same application compared to some alternatives.
Compatibility with Circular Design
Opti-Soft TPE is compatible with overmolding and multi-material designs, which can streamline product recycling if the entire product is designed for disassembly and material recovery.
Customizable Formulations for Specific Needs
By tailoring properties, CCS ensures that customers use only the necessary material for their applications, potentially reducing over-engineering and waste.
