Eklipse® - Tundra Companies

Deliver game-changing performance and affordability to a variety of products.

Eklipse® materials are fiber reinforced composites. Fibers such as glass, wood, carbon and aramid are coated with Tundra’s proprietary technology (TundraKoat™) and compounded into thermoplastics at varied loadings to meet specific physical properties. Eklipse® materials can be used in the automotive, aerospace, building & construction, electrical & electronics, energy, and consumer goods markets. Eklipse® materials can be engineered for specific thermal, mechanical, and rheological properties.

The Scope of Eklipse® Today:

Fibers

Glass Fiber
Wood Fiber
Mineral Fiber

Polymers

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
Polypropylene (PP)

Platform Benefits

In Extrusion

Increased processability and loading enhances the following properties:

Increased Strength
Specifically flexural modulus
Allows for use of dark colors and large sizes
Increased Heat Distortion Temperature (HDT)
Decreased Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CoTE)

Value Comparable to Market Products
Easy to Use
- Your Polymer + Our Masterbatch
- Ready to use pellets

Processed with traditional plastics processing equipment without the fear of increased wear which has typically been a limiting factor with fiber filled materials.

In Injection Molding

Increased mechanical strength, rigidity, hardness, and thermal stability as well as resistance to chemicals, abrasion, and impact

The Masterbatch Advantage

Your Polymer + Our Masterbatch

With the benefits of higher loading while retaining processability, Tundra is able to offer a fiber masterbatch which can then be let down by our customer. This masterbatch process allows our customers to retain their polymer supply as well as additive packages formulated for their product. It also allows our customers the ability to fine tune the fiber concentration in their end product.
