Rubber Extrusions
We manufacture precision rubber extrusions in diverse shapes including D-sections, T-profiles, and complex multi-void designs. Using advanced equipment and traditional techniques, we create weatherproof seals, automotive trims, and industrial components. Our capabilities cover solid and sponge rubber in multiple compounds to meet specific hardness, flexibility, and resistance requirements.
Rubber Mouldings
Our specialist rubber moulding service produces complex components for demanding environments. Utilising compression and injection moulding techniques, we create parts with tight tolerances for automotive, defence, and medical applications. The process incorporates reinforcement materials and bonding to metal substrates where required for enhanced performance.
Industrial Inflatables
We design and manufacture industrial inflatable seals for marine, aerospace, and heavy engineering sectors. These pressure-activated seals provide reliable closure solutions for hatches, doors, and containment systems. Our engineering team develops custom inflation mechanisms and material combinations to ensure longevity in challenging operational conditions.
Rubber Fenders
Our rubber fender systems offer impact protection for marine vessels and docking structures. Available in cylindrical, D-type, and custom configurations, these energy-absorbing solutions are engineered to withstand harsh maritime environments. We provide both standard and bespoke designs with precise buoyancy and compression characteristics.
Rubber Gaskets
We produce custom rubber gaskets for industrial equipment, HVAC systems, and vehicle applications. Our sealing solutions maintain integrity under varying temperatures and pressures, preventing leaks in critical mechanical systems. Materials include EPDM, neoprene, and silicone to meet chemical resistance and durability requirements.
