Continental Group company, Benecke-Kaliko has developed DecoJect thin foil for doors, instrument panels, consoles, pillar trim and other components as a cost-effective alternative to coated injection-molded parts in passenger and commercial vehicle interiors. Used to enhance uncoated injection-moulded (plastic) parts, Decoject foils are TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin) based foils with a PUR (Poly Urethane) based lacquer system available with a thickness ranging from 0.2 to 0.5 mm. This foil is back injection moldable only with polypropylene (PP). The foil does not have a grain of its own. The grain is transferred on to the back injection molded component from the engraved tool cavity. Paving way for new design options for vehicle interiors with an unlimited range of colours, print patterns, and effect coatings including metallic colours combined with any type of grain imaginable, the foil makes it possible to match the colour and gloss of the injection-moulded parts to other components. Giving them a feel of coated components. Enabling designers to create a harmonious environment. Scratch resistant, DecoJect also offers outstanding resistance to aqueous tenside solutions and other cleaning agents. This makes it the perfect choice in terms of cleaning criteria for components that are subject to the highest levels of wear and tear.
