Division Director Rob Hall says that the name change was a conscious decision to reflect the internal changes.

“It was a name change to reflect the nature of the applications we now supply,” he says. “Our goal is to provide a level of service that surpasses our customers’ expectations, and we are well-equipped going forward into the future.”

Zeus expects to further expand the markets for various materials, including PEEKshrink™, heat-shrinkable tubing made from PEEK™. PEEKshrink provides a “shrink to fit” layer of protection for sensitive or critical components used in a variety of applications such as medical devices, electronics, telecom hardware and oil exploration equipment. The polymer’s inherent purity and lubricity make it an ideal choice for analytical and life sciences applications. Shrink temperature is 625ºF/329ºC -- 725ºF/385ºC.

When shrunk onto components, PEEKshrink forms an impenetrable “second skin” that is impervious to contaminants, preserving the integrity and performance of whatever is inside.
