Industrial applications for flexible foam
As the leading engineering-biased UK-based foam converter, at Technical Foam Services we produce a truly astounding range of foams and flexile foam products to meet the precise requirements of a vast range of industrial sectors, which include:
- Construction and HVAC
- Automotive
- Transport
- Electronics
- Engineering and heavy industry
- Medicine and science.
We understand the applications each different type of foam is best used for; so, if you require adhesive coated foam, closed cell polyethylene foam or impregnated foam, we can advise on which is most appropriate and how best to use it.
Construction and HVAC
We supply a vast array of melamine and open-cell polyurethane foam, and closed cell polyethylene foam for a wide variety of functions in this sphere, such as:
- Air and dust filters
- Weatherproofing
- Duct linings
- Thermal insulation
- Acoustic panels and sound absorbers.
Included in this range is a comprehensive selection of fire retardant, non-burning solutions to meet FMVSS302, UL94 HF1 and Class O (black Pyrosorb, Fireseal and Basotect) standards; all developed specifically to endure the most demanding environments.
Automotive
As a trusted supplier of foams to a wide range of automotive and component manufacturers around the globe, we produce a vast range of products for car, bus and motorcycle OEMS and aftercare suppliers. These include:
- Air and dust filters - installed during manufacture and as replacement components
- Acoustic and sound absorbing foams
- Gaskets and seals
- Hoses and pipes
- Polishing pads - manufactured for use on production lines and in the aftercare market.
Transport
From ceramic filters for casting slim aerospace walls and linings, through air and dust filters for bus and train compressors, to O class fire retardant seating for railway carriages; the spectrum of solutions we develop for our customers in the transport sector is truly immense.
Electronics
As the recognised leader in engineering-biased foam conversion, we develop and produce a comprehensive range of foam solutions to meet the exacting requirements of this field. These range from permanent air and dust filters built into computers and other devices, to hydrophilic foam packaging and case inserts to protect fragile goods from moisture and damage in transit.
Engineering and heavy industry
In spite of their lightweight structure, flexible foams offer a robust and effective solution in many heavy engineering and industrial sectors. We manufacture a wide range of technically advanced products, which include:
- Gaskets, seals
- Air and dust filters
- Acoustic foams
- Ceramic filters for metal casting.
Medicine and science
With an established written protocol for handling medical foam grades, including the ability to offer sterilised and sealed products, we have a strong and varied customer base in the medical and scientific fields, for whom we manufacture products such as:
- HME filters
- Bedding
- Wound dressings.
These are just some of the areas our foam products can be used in. We also offer impregnated foam, which can have various additional benefits as required, including increased flame resistance, fume absorption, heat and moisture exchange, and more.
As well as foam, we are also foremost rubber suppliers. To speak to us about any of our products and services, or for a free quotation, please contact us today.
