S-Series: A tear-resistant polyester polyurethane foam with high elongation and stretch recovery properties 

Many materials fail when applications require stretch, recovery, durability and breathability. S-Series was formulated with open-cell breathability to support long-term performance under these demands. It also offers many performance and sustainability advantages over neoprene and closed-cell rubber with eco-friendly products that facilitate flame lamination, RF welding, adhesive laminations and more.

Consistent recovery that holds over time

In stretch applications, performance is measured in durability over time. S-Series is designed to deliver consistent stretch resistance and targeted snap-back response through many stretch and recovery cycles. Three firmness platforms and a range of densities support designing to targeted strength and recovery requirements. 

Breathable

Supports effective moisture vapor transmission for user comfort.

High tensile strength 

Resists tearing under repeated stressors. 

Solvent-resistant

Practical choice for end-users.

Latex- and chlorine-free

Advantaged alternatives to natural rubber and polychloroprene.

Sustainably manufactured for long-term business continuity

S-Series is a proven materials platform sustainably managed through responsible domestic supply chains. Its established performance and sourcing stability support long-term continuity in demanding applications. S-Series continues to be the hyPURcel product with the largest global footprint.

Ideal for wearables, athletic gear and industrial applications

S-Series supports stretch applications across industrial and wearable systems where airflow, strength and long-term durability are critical. Its performance has been validated over the past two decades as a superior choice in headgear strapping and orthopedic wrap applications. S-Series is proven for cost-effective flame laminations and offers designers many options for construction and fabrication. 

hyPURcel S-Series property sheets

Available in rolls and sheets with custom widths up to 62” wide and splice-free lengths up to 100’, skived to your required gauge. hyPURcel foams can be enhanced with functional additives such as antimicrobial, fire retardants, antioxidants and UV stabilizers. Value-added finishing processes include PSA, film, slitting, sheeting and fabric laminations. Custom color matching is also available.

Understanding hyPURcel naming conventions: The first two digits indicate density (lbs/ft3), and the last two indicate compression deflection (psi) per ASTM standards.
