CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. 21, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lubrizol Engineered Polymers has created a co-branding network to promote its ESTANE TPU brand of polymers for Paint Protection Film (PPF) applications through collaboration with global partners. Lubrizol, the inventor of TPU for commercial use, is a market leader serving the PPF industry with more than 30 years of demonstrated performance from its ESTANE TPU brand, which has defined the industry standard.
Partners within the co-branding network will be authorized to promote the "Made With ESTANE TPU" brand mark with film produced from ESTANE TPU. By featuring the ESTANE brand mark on packaging and promotional materials, film producing partners will be able to provide validation that their product is of the premium quality and performance that has become associated with the ESTANE brand. The goal of this co-branding network is to help discerning PPF manufacturers and brand owners recognize top quality solutions by differentiating film produced with ESTANE TPU from alternatives.
"Through the new co-branding network, we're well positioned to serve the needs of the growing PPF industry," says Peter Kirk, Global Surface Protection Marketing Manager, Lubrizol Engineered Polymers" We are helping the industry and our partners grow by leveraging the strong reputation of ESTANE TPU, which is backed by Lubrizol's deep material science and film processing expertise".
