PRODUCTS AND SOLUTIONS

Trelleborg Sealing Solutions provides a range of engineered solutions for aircraft cabin interiors. All its solutions are customizable to meet specific requirements and are available in a range of pre-approved materials for rapid deployment. With the broadest range of capabilities on the market, products can be developed to fit any niche or requirement.

Extruded-Polymer-Profiles
Extruded Polymer Profiles

Combining the experience of the entire Trelleborg Group, engineers have developed a new range of customized extruded profiles to meet the safety and performance requirements for aircraft interiors.


Available in both standard and customized designs, they are approved to all international flame, smoke and toxicity standards. Trelleborg seals can be provided in standard lengths or cut-to-size in colors to match the aircraft’s interior.

Custom Elastomer
Custom Elastomer Parts

Many applications are hidden away within the aircraft but still serve important purposes. Trelleborg Sealing Solutions can manufacture bespoke components for sealing the fluid, potable and wastewater systems and provide FDA-approved O-Rings and custom geometries to ensure safe food and drinking water aboard the plane.

 

For maintaining cabin pressure or for use in heating systems, customized diaphragms offer designers tailored performance. Fabric reinforcements let the diaphragms retain their flexibility but enhance their strength and lifetime.

Thermoplastic-Parts
Custom Thermoplastic Parts
Thermoplastics represent a large portion of the materials found in today's airplanes. Whether reducing weight, increasing life, improving performance or reducing cost, Trelleborg has aided many of its aerospace customers in designing, developing and implementing thermoplastic components for both the interior and exterior of aircraft.

From customer-specified colors and textures, to high temperature and wear resistant parts, Trelleborg offers a wide variety of thermoplastic options.
