foams
Flexibility and optimal conformity
Foams, such as cellular rubber, silicone foam, or PE foam, are characterized by their high flexibility and compressibility. These materials provide excellent conformity to uneven surfaces and are also well suited as spacers, for example as noise dampers and vibration protection. Cellular materials and foams can be produced in a variety of compounds, densities, hardness levels, or cell structures, depending on requirements, making them extremely versatile.
Applications
Foams are used in the automotive industry, electronics, and construction. They are often used to seal housings, doors, windows, or air conditioning systems where vibration damping, insulation, and protection against dust, air, and moisture are important. Thanks to their adaptability, they offer an effective solution for many applications with low thermal and mechanical requirements.

Variable in density and elasticity – ideal for sealing, insulation, and damping.
Cellular rubber – Closed cell & highly compressible
Foam rubber – Open cell & elastic
PE foam – Lightweight, thermal & sound insulating
Silicone foam – Heat-resistant, food-grade & flexible
Good to know
Silicone foam is particularly flexible and adaptable—ideal for gaskets in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
It excels in elasticity, dimensional stability, and high chemical resistance, even under varying loads.
