THE LOWEST POSSIBLE GLOSS
Working closely with ITW and Volvo in order to create a perfect replication of the surface details, to match the quality requirements.

LIGHT DISPERSION
The low gloss texture disperses the light and improves the application performance. In this case, HD Plastics™ brings significant changes to the optical properties of the surface of the plastic, to prevent blinding the radar inside the part in a one shot molding process.
