We Are The Flexible People
Rubber is an elastic, durable, and waterproof substance used in a variety of applications. There are two types of rubber: natural and synthetic. Natural rubbers are tear and abrasion resistant, with dynamic flex fatigue characteristics. However, synthetic rubber is superior to natural rubber due to its thermal stability and resistance to oils and oxidizing agents. …

On March 2nd, 175 nations agreed to end plastic pollution and are creating an international, legally-binding agreement that will be completed by 2024. This treaty will address the production, design, and disposal of plastic, including the design of reusable and recyclable plastics. This treaty emerged from the drastic increase in plastic pollution over the years. …
Plastics are a wide-range of polymer-based materials that are lightweight, durable, flexible, typically inexpensive to produce, and easily molded, extruded, or pressed into various shapes. There are different types of plastic, categorized by their structure, how they respond to heat, and whether they are naturally- or synthetically-derived. Structure: Plastics can be categorized by how their …

We produce rubber bumpers and flexible plastic bumpers in nearly any profile, length, or diameter you require. Simply provide us with your dock bumper design and we’ll take care of the rest. We use premium EPDM and Santoprene® materials, which offer reliable cushioning and protection, along with UV and water resistance to withstand the elements. …
The rubber extrusion process begins with a rubber compound being heated and fed into an extruder, where revolving screws carry the rubber toward a specially-made die in the desired shape of the extruded component. Temperature and pressure increase as the material is forced through the die opening. As it passes through the opening, the rubber …
We manufacture custom rubber, silicone, and plastic extruded profiles and moldings for engineers and OEMs across a broad range of industries. One of those is the construction industry. Construction applications require durable and high-performance materials that withstand exposure to the sun, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. Our available materials for construction extrusions include thermoplastics, silicone, …
March 18th is Global Recycling Day, an international initiative to increase awareness of recycling and educate on how to incorporate it into our everyday lives. Recycling is the process of converting items that would normally be thrown away as trash (whether during or after the original manufacturing process) into new materials and objects. Recyclables are …
In addition to our custom extruding and molding capabilities, we offer numerous value added secondary services. With our value-add operations, you receive ready-to-use parts (or as close to ready-to-use as possible) faster and more cost-effectively. And, with fewer vendors to work with, our secondary services reduce the headaches involved in your overall project. Some of …
