PURE® High impact can be applied in several anti ballistic and blast protection applications. The company is constantly exploring new applications and working with top test institutes.

Examples:
· Blast protective panels
· Anti ballistic panels (also in combination with ceramics)
· Anti blast waste bins for public places
· Spall-liners
· Demining Masks

The PURE®  Blast Basket has excellent anti ballistic and energy absorbing properties. It captures most of the metal fragments and redirects the blast waves upwards. The company can offer various solutions in containing a blast depending on customer requests. Example is a 35 kg blast basket which can handle a 1 kg TNT bare explosive charge. The dimensions of this basket are 408 mm high, 485 mm in diameter.

In upcoming new ELV directives in the automotive industry are stimulating the use of 100% recycling material. Next to that PURE® offers a high stiffness and strength which can ensure a low weight in a part compared to glass filled materials. Another important feature is the impact behaviour which even at -40°C is superior to existing materials.

Application possibilities:
· Under body shields             
· Interior panels
· Scuff plates                       
· Impact panels for minivans                                                       
· Wall panels for motorhomes and trailers

PURE® advertising panels are light weighted and show very good impact behaviour. This makes PURE® panels ideal for applications like billboards (Promoflex) or advertising panels in sport accomodations (Promodur).

Standard PURE® panels show very good impact behaviour, even at low (-40°C) temperatures. This enables uses for protective purposes. PURE® is easy to transform into thick (>3mm) panels. There are no technical limits towards thickness of the panels. This also enables customers with sheet pressing facilities to produce PURE® panels themselves. Fabrics and panels can be supplied with UV protection. PURE® on PU, PVC or honeycomb is possible and available.

Applications possibilities:
· Architectural Panels                   
· Sandwich Panels

PURE® shows good compatibility with other materials PURE® and is(fabric or sheet) excellent as a reinforcing material. It adds local strength or stiffness member. Already adding one layer of fabric in for instance an injection moulding or thermoforming process will increase properties on a very economical way.

In consumer applications PURE® offers a solution because properties like; lightweight, high impact, high stiffness and easy processibility.

Application possibilities:
· Suitcases                              
· Helmets
· Flight cases                           
· Sportsgear            
· Kayaks
