Automotive weather seal tapes and adhesives
The vehicles of today need to stand up to a variety of challenges. Reliability is critical, yet that’s not just defined by what’s under the bonnet or within the interior. Equally, vehicle exteriors need to withstand a range of weather conditions and environmental influences. Here, the proper application of EPDM rubber weatherstrips is vital, protecting key components and preventing the outside from getting in.
Acrylic foam and polyethylene solutions
Our acrylic foam and polyethylene products can help you achieve this, offering excellent performance against chemicals and aging to keep weatherstrips in place during the entire vehicle lifetime.
