Polyurethane

Polyurethane

The Material That Changes Everything

Thanks to its unique properties, it offers advanced solutions across a wide range of industries. It can replace traditional materials such as rubber, wood, metal, fabric, and even various coatings and colors.

Since its first appearance in the global market more than 40 years ago, polyurethane has become the go-to choice in many industries, including automotive, furniture, construction, electronics, and more. This innovative material combines the best of two worlds – strength and flexibility – creating an unparalleled technological advantage.

Key Advantages of Polyurethane:

• Customized hardness levels – from ultra-soft to rigid (measured by Shore A or Shore D).

• High wear resistance and excellent durability.

• Aesthetic versatility – can be designed, painted, and finished in countless ways.

• Ideal for demanding environments – extreme conditions, heavy loads, vibration absorption, insulation, and beyond.

Where Will You Find Polyurethane in Daily Life?

Polyurethane plays a role in many products you encounter every day:

Everyday Products

• Mattresses & seating

• Car wheels & rollers

• Car components

• Wall & floor coatings

• Industrial insulation panels

Polyurethane Function

• Comfort, softness, body support

• Shock absorption and smooth movement

• Noise and vibration reduction

• Durability and protection

• Thermal and acoustic insulation

Polyurethane Foams

Polyurethane foams can be manufactured in a wide range of densities (30–70 kg/m³ and beyond), depending on customer requirements. They can be soft, semi-rigid, or rigid, and can be used to replace heavier, more expensive materials.

Material Benefits:

• Flexible hardness levels, from very soft to very hard.

• Lightweight yet strong.

• Can include antibacterial or fire-retardant properties when required.

Integral Skin Foam

Integral skin foam combines a light, flexible inner structure with a tough, durable outer surface. This makes it ideal for products such as automotive parts, handles, and components requiring both comfort and resistance to impact.

Material Benefits:

• Hardness levels measured in Shore A (from 70 to 90).

• Strong, uniform surface finish that withstands daily use.

• Optional antibacterial properties.

Polyurethane Elastomers

Polyurethane elastomers are the “next-generation” material – delivering superior strength, resilience, and durability. Their unique structure allows for custom-made solutions in various industries where high wear and tear are expected.

Material Benefits:

• Outstanding resistance to abrasion, tearing, and impact.

• High load-bearing capacity and long-lasting performance.

• Excellent elasticity – can be molded and processed into endless shapes.

• Reliable design flexibility – perfect for industrial rollers, seals, protective coatings, and more.

Applications include automotive parts, heavy machinery, electronics, furniture, sports equipment, and countless other advanced technologies.
