The tub features a custom overmolded GLS Versaflex™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and non-toxic PolyOne OnColor™ colorants.
In addition, Karibu chose PolyOne’s non-toxic OnColor™ colorants, which are customizable and compatible with the GLS TPE material.
Karibu selected our TPE and colorants because they are superior to conventional products,” said Michelle Hearn, director of marketing for PolyOne GLS.
