Huntsman to celebrate 50 years of KRYSTALFLEX® TPU safety glazing technologies at GlassBuild America 2025
4-6 November 2025 - Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida
The Woodlands, Texas – Huntsman Corporation will exhibit at GlassBuild America this November, highlighting key products from its KRYSTALFLEX® TPU laminating film portfolio, while celebrating fifty years of the technology, which is used to create architectural and vehicle safety glazing.
At the event in Florida, Huntsman will demonstrate how interlayer films based on its established KRYSTALFLEX® TPU technology can enable the development of impact-resistant, optically clear laminated glazing systems, optimized to perform in the toughest environments and withstand UV and moisture for a long service life.
Faced with more volatile weather conditions such as hurricanes plus concerns around domestic and international security, the adoption of technologies like KRYSTALFLEX® TPU is expanding in architectural applications such as facades, windows, and interior partitions.
It’s the same story in the transportation sector, where KRYSTALFLEX® TPU films can enhance passenger protection and durability in different modes of transport from cars and trains to aeroplanes and military vehicles. The technology can also contribute to vehicle lightweighting – providing the required adhesion needed to bond polycarbonate and acrylic layers together.
Products on display at GlassBuild America 2025 will include:
- PE399: A mid-range modulus film suitable for ballistic applications
- PE429: A film that can offer excellent adhesion to acrylics at low temperatures
- PE499: Huntsman’s lowest modulus film for difficult, curved, and temperature sensitive laminates
- PE501: A high tensile, high tear strength film well suited to impact / bullet resistant glazing
- PE505: A high modulus film with excellent impact resistance at low & high temperatures.
Steven Wilaniskis, KRYSTALFLEX® Account Manager at Huntsman, said: “We’re excited to be at GlassBuild America this year, showcasing our KRYSTALFLEX® TPU laminating films for safety glazing. This year’s event is especially meaningful as we celebrate 50 years of innovation in protective glazing technology. For half a century, our film products have helped manufacturers deliver strong, safe, reliable glass products worldwide - and we’re proud to be continuing that tradition of excellence into the future.”
To mark fifty years of its KRYSTALFLEX® TPU technology, Huntsman has given the well-known brand a makeover and created a new website.
