Stamped out: The fully enclosed stamped metal cab of Dumur Industries' Wolverine All-Terrain vehicle (ATV) has been replaced by a pre-coloured thermoformed plastic unit produced by Acrylon Plastics in Manitoba, Canada, using LyondellBasell's Sequel E3000 engineered polyolefin selected for its impact resistance and low-temperature ductility and UV resistance. The change has reduced the weight as well as manufacturing and maintenance costs.
