From material selection to sustainable performance
The right material is the foundation of every successful sealing and profile solution. Our expertise goes beyond offering a broad material portfolio. We work closely with customers to select the optimal compound, develop and test solutions to meet application requirements, and support sustainability goals throughout the product lifecycle.
Material selection
Helping customers identify the optimal material based on:

- Regulatory requirements
Material development
Custom compounds designed to match specific application requirements. Examples:
- EPDM compounds
- TPE formulations
- Silicone compounds
- Circular material alternatives
Testing & Validation
Materials are thoroughly evaluated before implementation:
- Mechanical testing
- Thermal analysis
- Chemical compatibility testing
- Material qualification
Sustainability & Circularity
