Addressing this trend, Rogers has developed the Apex SEK (Shoulder, Elbow, Knee) Guard Series with PORON XRD Technology that will be introduced at the Outdoor Retailer Show in Salt Lake City, January 23-26, 2013. The Apex Series is the latest in Rogers’ continuing innovation with PORON XRD shaped materials, which include the PORON M-Guard, PORON B Guard and PORON X-Pad. Designed to be lightweight, flexible and durable, the SEK shapes easily conform to the body and provide long-lasting and wearable impact-protection for a variety of sports and protective products. Since the shapes are molded and ready to use, they can be easily incorporated into a product design. The uniquely engineered PORON XRD Technology continually surpasses the competition for repeat impact absorption in a thinner, contouring material. While soft and flexible to the touch, the material instantly forms a protective shell on impact, providing reliable and long-lasting protection. It is the only performance cushioning product on the market that contains Microban ® antimicrobial product protection to help fight against bacteria, mold and mildew that can cause stains and odors. “We believe that our new Apex SEK Guard Series will give product developers the versatility, performance characteristics and innovative design-edge they are looking to add to their protective apparel and equipment” said Brian Litke, Sr. Manager of New Product Development, Rogers High Performance Foams Division. “Wearable protective gear has been growing trend in the motorsports industry and we see outdoor and winter sports brands following suit.” About PORON® Cushioning For over 40 years PORON ® Cushioning has provided footwear, apparel, and protective equipment brands with a material that supports, protects, comforts, and most importantly, helps athletes stay in the game.
