An introduction to PEBAX
At Innovation Soles, we are always on the lookout for groundbreaking materials that can amplify the quality and performance of footwear. Today, we're excited to introduce you to a material that's making waves in the industry: PEBAX®.
The Science Behind PEBAX®
At the core of PEBAX®'s exceptional properties lies the principle of "block copolymer technology." This enables the fusion of two distinct blocks - polyether and polyamide. By tweaking their respective ratios, the result is a material characterized by incredible flexibility, strength, and elasticity, all while maintaining a feather-light weight and delivering superior energy return.
In our pursuit of championing sustainability, it's worth noting that there's a bio-based variant of PEBAX® derived from castor beans. This version offers identical performance while significantly lowering the environmental footprint.
PEBAX®: The Powerhouse in Modern Sportswear
PEBAX® elastomers have taken the sportswear world by storm. Esteemed by top-tier brands and revered by record-breaking athletes, this material has been frequently dubbed as "technological doping" in the sporting realm. Some even argue it provides an "unfair advantage."
Footwear enhanced with PEBAX Powered® technology consistently outperforms in competitions, driving fresh innovations in the industry. With Innovation Soles, you too can harness this performance-boosting technology through our manufacturing partners, ensuring you are always a step ahead.
Why PEBAX® Stands Out
Against competitors like EVA or TPU, PEBAX® showcases its unique "low energy loss" feature. This means PEBAX® excels at storing energy when stretched, and subsequently, releases it with high efficiency when relaxed - giving wearers an unparalleled spring in their step.
PEBAX®'s adaptability is another highlight. It can take on diverse forms - from injected components to foams and carbon-infused plates. This versatility makes it a preferred choice for varied sports applications.
