The value of Ecolon comes from the fact that it is not only less expensive than prime nylon while meeting all customer application requirements, but it is also environmentally sustainable. it keeps carpets from going to landfills, it reduces greenhouse gases, and it conserves natural resources like water. Besides its mainstay applications in fans, shrouds, and cam covers, both Ecolon and Ecoloy will continue to provide value to automotive and industrial customers in new applications such as air intake manifolds, active grill shutters, grill opening reinforcements, cable ties and fasteners, and many other applications, due to its advantages in dimensional stability and conditioned physical properties.
