Plexus Structural Adhesives are fully regrind compatible, which means that plastic components can be recycled without the need for cutting out the joints. In fact thousands of car bumpers bonded with Plexus Adhesive have already been recycled.

CAR ASSEMBLY - MEET OR EXCEED PLASTICS MANUFACTURERS REGRIND REQUIREMENTS

Plexus Adhesives are fully regrind compatible. Most thermoplastic parts bonded with these adhesives can be recycled without the labor-intensive step of cutting out the adhesive joints beforehand. In addition, the compatibility of Plexus Adhesives with many types of thermoplastic regrind reduces concern when separating plastic types. Plexus Adhesives are so similar in chemistry to certain regrind thermoplastics that they have only minimal influence on injection molding parameters and plastics properties. In fact, thousands of automobile bumpers bonded with Plexus Adhesives have already been recycled.

Provide Design Freedom, Reduce Weight, and Improve Quality
The superior bond properties and performance of Plexus Adhesives free design engineers from the problems of bonding with conventional adhesives or mechanical fasteners. As a result, they allow vehicle manufacturers to design and produce superior quality products-products that look better, perform better, last longer, and cost less. By allowing manufacturers to bond new materials and composites, Plexus Adhesives also help reduce the weight and simplify assembly of many of today's automobiles.
