Tegris is a 100% Polypropylene composite material with high impact resistance while maintaining high stiffness. It is based on a coextruded polypropylene tape yarn with a highly drawn core embedded into a lower melt polymer matrix. The combination of the two PP structures in each tape allow the fabric to be directly formed and processed as a composite material. Because both components are 100% polypropylene, the materials are fully recyclable.
Tegris comes in a variety of colors, finishes and thicknesses including weave variation. Because of its impact resistance it has been used for ballistic armor, and the strength properties have been seen at low temperatures of -40C.
Tegris has many applications for interior or exterior use, where materials require high impact, light weight and high stiffness.
