What Makes KEVLAR PPF Better? Polyurethane vs. Polycaprolactone TPU

When it comes to protecting your car’s paint, not all Paint Protection Films (PPF) are created equal. The core material used in the film plays a massive role in how well it performs, how long it lasts, and how it looks. In the Pakistani market, most PPF brands use Polyurethane TPU, but KEVLAR PPF uses advanced Polycaprolactone TPU — and that makes all the difference.

Let’s break it down.

What is TPU in PPF?

What is TPU in PPF?

TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is the flexible, clear material used in almost all modern PPFs. It provides:

• Flexibility

• Optical clarity

• Self-healing properties

• Resistance to minor scratches and impacts

But the performance of TPU depends on what kind of TPU is used.

Polyurethane TPU vs. Polycaprolactone TPU – What’s the Difference?

Feature	Polyurethane TPU	Polycaprolactone TPU (KEVLAR)
Material Type	General-purpose TPU (polyether or polyester based)	Specialty polyester TPU (PCL-based)
UV & Oxidation Resistance	Moderate – yellows over time	Superior – resists yellowing and oxidation
Gloss & Clarity Retention	Good initially, fades with age	High-gloss finish that stays crystal-clear for years
Self-Healing Performance	Average to decent	Advanced self-healing even at room temperature
Low Temperature Flexibility	Moderate	Excellent – no cracking or stiffness in winters
Durability & Longevity	3–5 years	5–10 years depending on conditions
Hydrolysis Resistance	Moderate	Exceptional – handles heat, rain, and humidity better
Biodegradability	No	Yes – environmentally friendlier
Cost	Lower	Slightly higher due to advanced material

Why KEVLAR PPF Uses Polycaprolactone TPU

Most PPFs sold in Pakistan are based on standard polyurethane TPU, which begins to degrade and yellow under our intense sun and high humidity within a few years.

KEVLAR PPF is engineered differently.

• Built with Polycaprolactone TPU, a medical-grade material used in implants and high-performance gear.

• Offers longer life, better clarity, and superior protection.

• Specifically designed for Pakistani conditions — harsh UV, heat, pollution, and rain.

What This Means for You

• Better looking car for longer – KEVLAR stays glossy and transparent.

• No yellowing – even after years of exposure.

• Better value – one-time investment that lasts almost double.

• Next-gen performance – self-heals faster, even under shade.

🇵🇰 The First & Only PCL TPU PPF in Pakistan

KEVLAR is the only brand in Pakistan using Polycaprolactone TPU for PPF. While others settle for basic polyurethane, we’ve chosen performance, durability, and long-term value.

If you're serious about your car’s appearance and resale value — don't settle for anything less than KEVLAR PPF.

Final Thoughts: The Science Matters

TPU may look the same on the surface, but what’s underneath makes the real difference. Choose a film that’s designed for lasting performance, not just short-term shine.
