SMC components for consumer and leisure products
Consumer and leisure products must combine technical performance, visual quality, comfort, durability and cost-efficient production. SMC components can be considered for outdoor products, sports equipment, caravanning and leisure vehicles.
These applications often require components designed for humidity, impact, frequent handling and changing weather conditions. UV resistance and surface appearance must be defined through the formulation, finish and project requirements.
