RE ZRO®, the British impact protection specialist, introduces an all new update within their materials toolbox, a new variant on their proven TPE now includes up to 50% post consumer recyclate. Developed to support circular manufacturing initiatives, the material delivers market level protection, flexibility and comfort expected of RE ZRO® armour, while helping brands reduce material footprint. Enhanced by TOTO-TOA®, the material is also designed to biodegrade in anaerobic landfill environments, supporting responsible end-of-life outcomes.

RE ZRO® TPE (PCR Grade) expands the RE ZRO® range with a performance option designed specifically for brands prioritising measurable recycled content. It offers a practical balance between protection standard, flexibility and sustainability, creating a clear pathway for responsible product development without moving into higher-spec protection categories.

Built for circular thinking

RE ZRO® TPE (PCR Grade) is aimed at brands and manufacturers looking to move towards circular or closed-loop production. Where suitable, the material can incorporate recycled polymer streams, such as automotive plastics, allowing partners to feed material back into new protective components.

This approach supports sustainability goals without requiring changes to product design, fit, or user experience.

Protection that performs, responsibly made

RE ZRO® TPE (PCR Grade) is designed to deliver reliable impact protection across repeated use and changing conditions. By maintaining the same material behaviour as existing RE ZRO® armour, brands can introduce recycled content with confidence.

The material is recyclable and reprocessable, supporting longer-term circular strategies while continuing to meet the demands of protective equipment and performance-driven products.

Easy to adopt, ready to scale

RE ZRO® TPE (PCR Grade) integrates easily into existing production processes, making it a practical option for brands looking to increase recycled content without adding complexity.  Available in Shore 55A to 65A, it allows designers and engineers to specify flexibility and feel according to application needs. These adaptations and processes enable sustainability commitments to be met in a realistic, scalable way.

With RE ZRO® TPE (PCR Grade), RE ZRO® continues to expand its materials portfolio, offering advanced impact protection designed to support responsible manufacturing and circular design.

Get in touch to find out how RE ZRO® TPE (PCR Grade) can be used in your next product development cycle.
